Fluval Bug Bites Shrimp Formula

Fluval Bug Bites Shrimp Formula is a protein rich, insect based food made for freshwater shrimp and other small invertebrates and bottom feeders. Black soldier fly larvae and plant matter give shrimp balanced nutrition for molting, color, and healthy colonies. See our nutrition collection and freshwater invertebrates range.

Why Fluval Bug Bites

• Insect based protein: nutrient rich black soldier fly larvae are among the first ingredients, a protein fish naturally forage for.
• Balanced daily nutrition: omega 3 and 6 fatty acids support healthy growth, energy, and a strong immune system.
• Sustainably sourced: farmed insect protein has a far smaller footprint than traditional fishmeal.
• Tiny sinking granules sized for shrimp and nano bottom feeders.

Feeding

Feed a small amount every one to two days, only what your shrimp graze within a few hours. Remove leftovers to protect water quality in shrimp tanks.

FAQ

What makes Bug Bites different?
The recipe is built around nutrient rich black soldier fly larvae rather than relying on fishmeal, giving fish a protein source close to what they would eat in the wild.

Is this only for shrimp?
It is designed for freshwater shrimp like neocaridina and caridina, but small snails and nano bottom feeders will graze it too.

How much should I feed?
Offer only what your fish finish in about two minutes, one to three times a day, and remove anything left uneaten to keep water quality high.
