Bee shrimp is omnivorous, not picky eaters. They can eat animal feed such as red worms, water earthworms, water fleas, cooked spinach, green vegetable leaves and other plant feed, as well as artificial shrimp food. When breeding, it is recommended to feed with special shrimp food for bee shrimp. If not, you can also use cooked spinach with disinfected red worms to feed. It should be noted that animal feed must be disinfected, otherwise the parasites or pathogens may cause shrimp illness or even death.
The demand for food by the bee shrimp is not very large. When breeding, it can be fed once every 1-2 days. Every feeding time can not feed too much, otherwise the leftover feed will remain in the water, affecting the water quality. If you breed young shrimps, you can feed them every day. This will give them more nutrients and help them grow faster and better.
Bee shrimp is omnivorous and can eat algae. However, compared with algae, they prefer to eat nutritious artificial feed or fresh and clean live bait. They don't eat much, and they don't eat algae very fast. If you are used to eating artificial feed, the amount of algae will be reduced. If you want to remove algae, it is more recommended to use black shell shrimp with stronger algae removal ability.
