Green fodder

Green foods such as nettles, spinach, spirulina and various types of algae play a central role in the diet of aquarium shrimp, as they provide nutrients that are difficult to obtain from other sources. These plant-based foods offer a rich mix of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that help shrimp build a resilient immune system and stay healthy over time.

Spirulina and seaweed are also naturally rich in trace elements and amino acids that support both growth and reproduction. Leafy greens such as nettles and spinach contain high levels of iron, which is important because iron contributes to the shrimp's oxygen transport and thus their general vitality. At the same time, the plant fibers in the green feed provide important support for digestion. A good intestinal flora makes it easier for the shrimp to absorb the nutrients they take in and reduces the risk of disease.

By providing shrimp with a varied range of green food – such as spirulina, spinach and seaweed – along with protein-rich ingredients, they receive a more balanced diet. This combination ensures that their nutritional needs are met in a natural way and creates the conditions for both stable growth and long-term health.

To meet the nutritional needs of shrimp in a balanced way, they need a varied diet. It is advisable to combine your green feed with basic feed and protein feed .
