Ultra-fine nutrition for the smallest members of your colony. Two botanicals, one formula — designed to support shrimplets from their very first day.
What it's designed for
Baby Powder Alfalfa & Stinging Nettle is formulated specifically for newborn shrimplets — ground to an ultra-fine particle size for easy consumption by shrimp in their earliest stages of development. Alfalfa provides plant-based protein and natural fibre to support early growth, while stinging nettle delivers concentrated minerals critical for exoskeleton formation and early moulting. Used sparingly, a single pack of 15g provides weeks of targeted shrimplet nutrition.
Why this formula works
- Alfalfa → plant-based protein and natural fibre for early growth and digestion
- Stinging nettle → concentrated minerals supporting exoskeleton development and moulting
- Ultra-fine particle size → accessible to shrimplets from day one
- Dual-ingredient formula → broader nutritional coverage than single-ingredient powders
Key Benefits
- Specifically formulated for newborn shrimplets from day one
- Supports early moulting and healthy exoskeleton development
- Plant-based protein for growth and natural fibre for digestion
- Ultra-fine grind — no particle too large for the smallest shrimplet
- Free from artificial additives and synthetic supplements
How to Use
Add a very small pinch directly to the aquarium near areas where shrimplets are active. Use sparingly 2–3 times per week — a little goes a long way. Remove uneaten portions after 24 hours. Suitable for all freshwater shrimp species, including Neocaridina and Caridina.
Product Standards
- Formulated with carefully selected natural ingredients
- Produced in small batches for consistency
- Designed for long-term stability, not short-term results
Frequently Asked Questions
How much powder is in a pack?
Each pack contains 15g of ultra-fine baby powder.
From what age can shrimplets eat this?
From day one. The ultra-fine particle size is specifically designed for newborn shrimplets who cannot yet consume standard-sized foods.
Is this suitable for adult shrimp too?
Yes — adult shrimp will also graze on the powder. It is formulated primarily for shrimplets but is safe and nutritious for the whole colony.
How long will a pack last?
Used sparingly as directed, 15g will last several weeks even in active breeding tanks. A little goes a long way — avoid overfeeding to maintain water quality.
