Food for Shrimp, Snails & Crustaceans

Natural sources of calcium and minerals are one of the best things you can provide your aquatic shrimps and snails There are certain types of aquarium botanicals we have coined as 'feeder botanicals', meaning your fish, snails, and shrimp will actually eat them. All of these botanicals contain beneficial antioxidants, calcium, and other nutrients to increase molting and breeding behaviors in your crustaceans. They come from around the globe, and each is bagged in our compostable packaging.
