Bulk Live Food for Larger Predatory Fish
Our Bulk Live River Shrimp provide a convenient larger quantity of active live prey for customers who regularly feed predatory marine fish.
Significantly larger than live foods such as copepods, brine shrimp and mysis, River Shrimp are ideally suited to appropriately sized predators that naturally hunt crustaceans and other moving prey.
Ideal for Regular Predator Feeding
The 70–90g bulk pack is particularly useful for aquarists with larger feeding requirements, including:
• Larger marine aquariums
• Multiple aquarium systems
• Collections of predatory fish
• Regular live-food feeding
• Larger individual predators
• Retail and professional aquarium systems
If you regularly purchase smaller portions of Live River Shrimp, the bulk pack provides a much more convenient option.
Encourage Natural Hunting Behaviour
Live River Shrimp don't simply provide food – they encourage fish to hunt.
Their movement stimulates the natural predatory instincts of suitable fish, creating a much more active and engaging feeding experience.
For species that naturally hunt crustaceans and other moving prey, occasional live feeding can provide valuable behavioural enrichment alongside an appropriate varied diet.
Excellent for Predatory Marine Fish
Live River Shrimp can be particularly attractive to appropriately sized predators such as:
• Lionfish
• Groupers
• Puffers
• Frogfish
• Other suitable predatory marine fish
Always ensure that the size of the live food is appropriate for the individual fish being fed.
Useful for Selective Predators
Newly introduced predatory fish can sometimes be reluctant to recognise frozen or prepared foods.
The movement of Live River Shrimp can stimulate a strong natural feeding response, making them particularly useful when trying to encourage a shy or selective predator to begin feeding.
Where appropriate, live foods can also be incorporated into a gradual transition towards suitable frozen and prepared foods.
Part of a Varied Diet
River Shrimp provide a naturally protein-rich crustacean food source, but they should form part of a varied feeding regime rather than being relied upon exclusively.
Offering a selection of appropriate foods provides greater dietary variety while continuing to encourage natural feeding behaviour.

Feeding
Introduce an appropriate number of River Shrimp according to the size, species and feeding requirements of your fish.
Where practical, separate the shrimp from their transport water before introducing them to the aquarium.
Observe your fish during feeding and avoid introducing excessive quantities that remain uneaten within the system.
Use Live River Shrimp alongside other appropriate foods as part of a varied feeding regime.
