FAQs

How often should I feed the shrimp sticks?

Feed a small amount once or twice a day, adjusting based on the number of shrimp and how quickly they consume the food.

Can I feed this to my fish?

No, this food is specifically formulated for shrimp and crustaceans. It is not designed to meet the nutritional needs of fish.

How should I store the shrimp sticks?

Store the food in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain freshness.

How long will the food last?

The shelf life is typically indicated on the packaging. Check the expiration date.
