Aqueon Herbivore Shrimp Food is expertly designed to meet the dietary needs of herbivorous freshwater shrimp species, such as those in the genus Neocaridina, including popular varieties like Cherry and Blueberry Shrimp. This product uses sinking discs formulated without fish meal to closely replicate the natural plant-based diet of herbivore shrimp.

The disc form allows multiple shrimp to feed simultaneously, supporting communal environments. These herbivore-targeted discs contribute to a balanced freshwater ecosystem, promoting shrimp health and longevity without introducing unwanted fish proteins.
