hey i have a skunky cleaner shrimp thats been in my tank for about a week. he found a host and spends the whole day sunbathing in my abnormally large yellow leather. i havent fed him anything because i heard they get their food off live. do i feed him if what and how often?

I feed mine every few days.

I have seen him eat baby bristle worms and catch large pods so mine is getting plenty of food. I still give him a bit of food every 3-4 days.

It is always good to give your shrimp extra food. It doesn't hurt, so you might as well. I just use shrimp pellets, and my peppermints absolutely love it... They will eat out of my hand... Pretty kewl,

My shrimps will eat whenever I feed my fish which is once every morning. I feed them flakes and pellets both made by I think Nutrimax... :woot: <~~ That's a funny ass smilie.

NaNO ReeFiN; that is a funny ass smile :)

 

Anyway, my shrimp does also eat food from the clowns. I feed them Hikari Marine-S pellets and she will even swim upside down across the water just below the surface eating the pellets.

Looks very funny.
