Priscilla Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Hello everyone! How often should I feed my shrimps cuttlebone powder for calcium? So far I have seen 1 shell in each day, for 3 days straight. Thank you! [emoji4] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vpier Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 I don't use cuttlebone at all. When you initially prep your tank with products like Mosura BT-9, Old Sea Mud or Mironekuton this will give you the proper minerals and trace elements you need for your shrimps. A good remineralizer, high quality food and a product like CSF pure minerals http://www.theshrimptank.com/foods/csf-pure-mineral/ is what I use. After writing all is I noticed you keep Opae Ula so never mind about my initial comments unless your are keeping shrimps like neocaridina or caridina shrimp. If you use a good salt for marine fish like Instant Ocean and have some coral pieces you dont need add any cuttlebone. The salt and coral will have the calcium your Opae's need.
