Ensure your shrimp have the building blocks they need for a healthy life with Shrimp King Mineral. Since shrimp cannot store minerals in their bodies, regular ingestion is vital for their long-term health. These sinking, water-stable feed sticks provide a concentrated source of essential minerals, featuring 10% montmorillonite clay, 5% calcium carbonate, and 10% coralline red algae. This unique formula is specifically designed to support smooth, problem-free molting and the development of a strong, resilient new shell.
Made with 100% natural ingredients, this supplement is free from fish meal, artificial preservatives, and colorings. It provides the high-bioavailability calcium your shrimp need to thrive, making it an essential addition to your feeding rotation. Not only is it perfect for all shrimp species, but it is also an ideal mineral boost for crayfish, dwarf crayfish (CPOs), crabs, and ornamental snails.
Key Features & Benefits
Supports Molting & Shell Growth: Rich in bioavailable calcium from coralline red algae and essential trace elements to ensure your shrimp can build strong, healthy shells after every molt.
Essential Mineral Density: Formulated with proven clay mineral montmorillonite and pure calcium carbonate to replenish minerals that shrimp cannot store naturally.
100% Natural Ingredients: Crafted with high-quality, food-grade components including kelp, insect proteins, and nutrient-dense botanicals like stinging nettle and moringa.
No Fillers: Guaranteed to be free from fish meal, cheap plant by-products, and artificial additives, providing only pure, beneficial nutrition.
Highly Versatile: An excellent mineral supplement for all crustaceans and snails in your aquarium, supporting the health of your entire cleanup crew.
Feeding Recommendation
Provide approximately one 5 mm stick for every 20 shrimp. Because it is a supplement, feed it sparingly and be sure to remove any uneaten food residues after 24 hours to maintain optimal water quality.

Pure natural product
Especially nutritious due to high, natural protein content (approx. 30%)
With essential vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids and numerous secondary plant substances
With high, natural calcium content (approx. 1.5%) for a strong carapace and easy skinning of shrimps and crabs
With valuable plant enzymes and digestive fiber (approx. 23%)
TIP: Ideal also as natural vacation food for weekends or vacations – without water pollution
In the natural biotopes of shrimps and crabs, fallen leaves play an important role in the diet. The animals love to graze decomposing leaves with the biofilm growing on them. For a biologically balanced diet, vegetarian food should therefore be a regular feature on the menu of all shrimp and crabs.
The leaves of the Indian coral tree – known as “Dadap” in its native country – are 100% natural and an optimal food supplement for all freshwater dwarf shrimps. The leaves are freshly picked, hand-picked and gently dried.
They are characterized by a high content of essential vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids and plant enzymes. In addition, they provide valuable dietary fiber that aids digestion. Due to their high protein content of approx. 30%, they are often used in their home countries as high-quality livestock feed.
ShrimpKing Dadap Leaves is a natural supplementary food and is an excellent addition to the main food. The dry leaves soak up water in the aquarium and sink to the bottom within 1-2 days. A biofilm of bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms that ferment (“pre-digest”) the leaf tissue forms on the surface. This natural growth is enthusiastically grazed by the shrimps. It contains all the nutrients and building blocks that they need on a daily basis. The fibers of the leaves act as fiber and promote healthy digestion. Valuable secondary plant substances strengthen the body’s defenses and support healthy development. ShrimpKing Dadap Leaves ensure healthy, balanced growth, more vitality and the joy of reproduction.
ShrimpKing Dadap Leaves have also proven their worth in the professional keeping and breeding of Caridina and Neocaridina species as a nutritionally high-quality supplementary food. As the biological decomposition takes about 1-2 weeks, every animal has enough opportunity to eat. There is no food stress, which is especially advantageous for less assertive animals and young animals. In the end only the filigree leaf skeleton remains.
Professional tip: ShrimpKing Dadap Leaves are perfect as a natural supply food for weekends or vacations – without unnecessarily polluting the water. Simply put them into the aquarium before your vacation and you can go on vacation relaxed, with a clear conscience that your beloved shrimps are optimally supplied.
ShrimpKing Dadap Leaves are also ideal as a food supplement for dwarf crayfish (CPOs), snails and growth-eating catfish (e.g. Ancistrus species).

Food granules for targeted colour intensification of all yellow, orange and red shrimp species. With high concentration of natural colour enhancers such as astaxanthin, beta-carotene and lutein.
Shrimp King Color are sinking, water-stable food granules made from 100% natural ingredients for natural colour intensification of freshwater dwarf shrimps.
Yellow, orange and red shrimps cannot develop the colours that give them their attractive bodily colouration themselves, and they have to take it in via their food. These colourings, called carotenoids, are primarily found in algae, flowers, fruits and leafy vegetables. Shrimps and crayfish turn carotenoids into their own colourings, especially astaxanthin, which forms a molecular bond with the protein beta crustacyanin. These molecular compounds are stored in special colour cells and give the shrimps their species-specific colouring.
The situation with shrimps is similar to that with the famous pink flamingos: If these birds eat small, carotenoid-rich crustaceans like artemia, their feathers become pink in colour due to the carotenoid or the astaxanthin they contain. If, on the other hand, their food does not contain any natural colourings, they lose their natural colourfulness and become white.
Shrimp King Color is rich in natural colourings from a wide range of high-quality ingredients, e.g. micro-algae, crustaceans, tagetes flowers, paprika, carrots and decapsulated artemia eggs. With regular feeding, it provides the perfect basis for the full development of the species-specific colouring.Shrimp King Color is especially suited to the following species: Red Fire, Sakura Red, Sakura Orange, Blue Pearls, Yellow Fire, Black Tiger Shrimps and Blue Tiger Shrimps.
High-quality proteins and essential amino acids from aquatic animals act as carrier substances for the natural colour intensifier. They ensure even growth. Vitamins and vital substances from different types of algae and vegetables act as “lubricants” for a functioning metabolism and strong defences.
Guarantee: No artificial colourings or preservatives, no fish meal.
The thin, non-buoyant sticks are made from 100% natural ingredients and are rich in calcium.They ensure strong shells and great colours thanks to the colour booster, astaxanthin.

Catappa leaves coming from Indian Almond Trees (Terminalia catappa) help to replicate natural environments for Bettas, shrimp and other aquarium inhabitants. When added to an aquarium, they release tannins and other organic compounds which aid in maintaining lower pH and gently tinting water. These conditions mimic habitats with acidic water and abundant leaf litter. As catappa leaves decay, beneficial micro-organisms grow on the leaf surface, creating a natural source of food for shrimp, snails, and newly-hatched fish.
Add 1-2 leaves per 20 liters (5 US gallons). Remove and replace every month or as desired. Catappa leaves may float initially but will sink after 2 - 3 days. To make an extract, boil three grams (approx. two-and-a-half leaves) in 1 liter (1 US quart) of water for ten minutes or until desired color is attained. Let extract cool to aquarium temperature and pour directly into the tank or mix with prepared water for water changes. When first using extract, add gradually over a 2 to 3 days and monitor to ensure pH stays within suitable range for tank inhabitants. Chemical filtration media such as activated carbon can remove compounds provided by Catappa leaves.
