Bamboo Shrimp

[Shelster]

What do folk feed their bamboo shrimp on?

At the moment mine is just getting flake food which he is wafting his little legs to eat and is messing too.

I was wondering about getting some baby fry food and mixing with water and placing near filter to spread around the tank for him. I know they are scavengers but don't want him to grow hungry.

I was told they can be very sensitive to acclimatisation, so I spent an hour yesterday getting him settled and slowly introducing water, so hope he will be ok for the water change tomorrow!

Any hints and tips gratefully received

I don't feed mine anything specifically, but he seems to find enough floating about in the water to keep himself fed.
