Sinking food sticks made of organic soy bran with valuable Chlorella and Nannochloropsis algae. Tasty feeding fun for all shrimps. The food sticks easily crumble away and form a “food carpet” – thus, every animal is able to get to the food. For healthy growth, vibrant colouring and plentiful reproduction.

Guarantee: Without artificial preservatives and colorants, without fish meal.

Tip: Shrimp King Algae Pops is also ideal for feeding crayfish, dwarf crayfish (CPOs), crabs, long-arm shrimps and snails.

Background information

Soy beans, belonging to the family of pulses, are known as source of high-quality protein. The  legumes are rich in vital amino acids, vitamins, polyunsaturated fatty acids as well as cell protection micronutrients , such as folic acid and selenium. Those are accompanied by essential minerals  such as calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc. Due to their prebiotic  properties, dietary fibres provide for  a healthy digestion.

Due to their tiny size of only a few micrometers, the unicellular green algae of the type Chlorella and Nannochloropsis are ideally suited for the feeding of baby shrimps. However, also the adult animals love to eat them, as they belong to their natural diet.

These micro-algae contain all important amino acids, minerals, trace elements, vitamins, many unsaturated fatty acids, polysaccharides and colour-enhancing pigments.

The numerous positive ingredients  make Algae Pops an ideal alternative and supplement to the main feed.  They promote a healthy, balanced growth and plentiful reproduction. Also ideally suited as valuable snack.

      One interesting thing he mentioned was "Bacteria pressure", which I guess just means number of bacteria around.  Yet I see all these other videos from shrimpkeepers bragging about how much bacteria their filtering system holds. Also interesting is no mention of using anti-biotics to treat bacterial infection.  I think that has fallen out of favor recently.

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.
