Dennerle Shrimp King Mineral 1.59 oz - Supplementary Food for Ornamental Shrimps - for The Prevention of Moulting Problems

Ummm... my mystery & ramshorn snails go CRAZY for these (& the other Dennerle snail stixx I bought - same review.. because they love them both!) They shipped quickly. Plus, I got free samples with my order! Seriously, my snails go crazy for them!! (Felt like that needed repeating :) ) They sink immediately, and they do swell up, but don't cloud the water AT ALL! If you have snails.. buy these! I'm sure they are great for shrimp too! They have lots of calcium, which I desperately need because I have soft water (I do dose liquid calcium too though), and my snails have beautiful shells. Will order again when I run out! (But they should last me awhile - even with 200 mystery snails - made the mistake of letting ONE clutch hatch - her first, & only lol) I also feed snail stixx (dennerle), & I make "snail-o" (snail jello) too, along with fresh greens/parsley/veggies.

I like all the Shrimp King products. They are a little pricey, but the quality you get and the fact that your shrimp thrive on this and the other products make it worth the price.

They really nom down on the mineral flavor, they also really like the protein pellets a lot! They are fairly indifferent of the 'complete' formula, however I'm also fond of this. Sometimes I want them to graze and clean excessive algae, so I'll toss one in, they peck at it, but never swarm it. Complete is also much more stable/dense, it doesn't break apart even after a day, the shrimp have to eat it or it'll sit, this mineral (also the protein) break down into a pile of fluffy pieces that shrimp swarm and pick through and spread a little, if you don't over feed, they don't really make a mess; unlike those pink or green waffers, which turn to a pile of dust and start decaying within hours. I love feeding these shrimp king pellets

the shrimp love to eat this food and I hope it really supplies them with everything they need, but the instructions say to remove anything left after 24 hours and I would be 100% happy if there was nothing leftBUT after they eat every time, some particles, light in color, something like vermiculite, and the shrimp don't want to eat them, forcing me to clean it up every time)

The media could not be loaded. You’d swear this is crack for shrimps. It’s their absolute favorite. It keeps them so focused you can really study their genetics, biology, and habits! Dropped a stick in to my newer colony and writhing minutes they all just flocked to it, which let me dissect my colony! Allowed me to find a couple females, because otherwise I wouldn’t study them close enough, so that’s atleast aWorth something, outside of it being shrimp crack

My neos love it.. TaiTibees not so much..

I was looking for a food to help with my snails' shells. I've never seen my snails and shrimp this obsessed with a food before! No idea what they put in it but they just pile on it and fight over it. It'll be my staple food from now on.

My neos totally devour these sticks. They’re healthy and are reproducing well.
