This shrimp is a scavenger and is very useful in planted and nano aquariums.
The bulk of its diet is biofilm, algae, and decaying plant matter so it will work diligently to clean up the waste in any aquarium.
It feeds constantly, so it displays constant activity.
In a less mature aquarium, it should be fed high quality flake and mini pellet dry foods with high algae/spirulina/plant content.
