What do you feed your shrimp?

[DETAquarium]

Hey ShrimpSpot!

 

Trying my hand at posting a poll, thanks for your feedback!

 

I am sure we have all been curious of the above questions, I would love for you all to participate. I will share the results in a couple of days once I have time to review the data. OR If you prefer I can share as we go. Let me know your thoughts!

I can't vote because I don't have Caridinas

There are three questions, two look similar but one asks what you feed your Neocaridina and the other Caridina. This helps encompass 99% of all shrimp keepers.

But it won't let me submit my answers for the first 2 if I don't click anything for the third.

Thank you for the feedback Sarah. I was able to add another choice at the bottom of question 1 and 3, "I don't have Neocaridina/Caridina shrimp".

possibly add a secondary brand option? I've recently started to switch to Low Keys everything but Borneo Wild is still mixed in to change it up

[Dukendabears]

Id think Shrimp Nature should be an option too, many hobbyists and professionals are using it.

You got it!

I am trying to limit the number of votes to 1 per hobbyist per question so the outcome is not so diluted. It doesn't allow you to limit outside of 1 per question, its 1 vote or infinite votes.

Thank you for your support everyone, please continue voting if you have not already. I will post the results tomorrow evening.

I feed my caridina bee grow.  Not sure the brand.

[svetilda]

I can't vote because I use Borneowild Bebi and Mosura Bio Plus in my tanks same. I feed my neos and cards same with only one different thing. In my neos/TT tank I have 2 otos who like to eat shrimp food (especially they love Shrimp Nature Red). So, I don't feed shrimp in that tank expensive shrimp hard food.

 

The brands I buy:

 

Mosura

Borneowild

Shrimp Nature

Han

Hikari

 

and I rotate them every day with addition of fresh leaves/vegetables.

 

I have some other brands samples but not sure yet if I'm going to buy them later as a staple food.

Don't many of us rotate brands?
