How does this compare to hikari micro pellets? i already have 1kg of hikari mirco pellets so not sure if it's worth buying this just for my shrimps

I don't know what Hikari pellets look like but Shrimp Cuisine are little rings or hoops, some orange coloured, some green. This allows the Shrimp to grab hold of it, the shape deters fish from eating it.

Can you feed African shrimp with this, Tia.

Vampire Shrimp (African Filter Shrimp) are filter feeders (they wave their arms and filter food from around them) they do better on things like brine shrimp and micro organisms but will filter feed tiny bits of fish flake but its not an ideal diet for them. This food sinks and is more for those scavenger type shrimp that grab the tiny pellet and run before anybody else gets it!

How many times a day you feed this? I have a planted aquarium, no other fish yet. Thanks!

If you have just started the aquarium and there is little to no biofilm yet you should feed your shrimp about 3 times a day. Kind regards - Bargain Pet Supplies

does this contain copper as copper kills amano shrimp?

My amano have been eating it quite happily for three years without any deaths. Its perfectly safe for them. My blue dreams, cherries, crystal and sapphires breed excellently eating this (plus correct parameter water obviously)
