the snails and crabs will eat algae. if you run out of algae you can give them little pieces of food, preferablly something vegetable based. the shrimp will eat anything meaty such as frozen formula one. tehy have done this for me int he past and i found i didnt need to feed very often. the wenia likes the addition of iodine to the water and the other shrooms are fine with water changes but liek the additional feeding of meaty foods as well.

where do you feed the mushrooms the meaty food (on top, bottom????)

 

Thanks for the help!!!!!

you can try to feed your shrooms, but the shrimp will prolly come eat it before the shroom has had a chance to digest it.

 

Feeding shrooms is optional, giving them nice clean water and some light is usually enough.
