Nettle Pellets – Natural, Nutrient-Rich Shrimp Food

Nettle pellets are a highly nutritious, plant-based shrimp food made from 100% dried stinging nettles. Packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, these pellets support shrimp health, growth, and vibrant coloration.

Key Benefits: 
✅ 100% Natural & Plant-Based – Made from pure dried stinging nettles, free from artificial additives.
✅ Rich in Essential Nutrients – Packed with calcium, iron, and vitamins that support healthy growth and molting.
✅ Promotes Digestive Health – High in fiber to aid digestion and prevent bloating.
✅ Supports Vibrant Coloration – Natural antioxidants help enhance shrimp coloration.
✅ Slow-Softening & Long-Lasting – Allows shrimp to graze over time without polluting the water.

Nettles are known for their anti-inflammatory properties and high levels of calcium, iron, and fiber, making them an excellent choice for promoting strong exoskeletons and successful molting.

Why Choose Nettle Pellets?
Nettle pellets provide a natural, wholesome feeding option for shrimp keepers who want to support their colony’s overall health and vitality.

With their high mineral content and beneficial plant compounds, they help strengthen shrimp shells, boost immunity, and encourage natural grazing behavior.

These sinking pellets soften gradually in water, allowing shrimp to graze naturally while ensuring minimal waste and maximum nutrition.

How to Use:

  1. Feed 1-2 times per week as part of a varied diet.
  2. Drop a small amount (approximately 1-2 pellets per 15-30 shrimp) into the aquarium.
  3. The pellets will slowly soften in water, allowing shrimp to graze at their own pace.
  4. Any remaining food can be left in the tank, as it continues to break down naturally without fouling the water.

Storage Instructions:
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To maintain freshness, reseal the packaging after each use.

A perfect choice for hobbyists and breeders alike, nettle pellets are a must-have for any shrimp tank! 🦐🌿

    Awesome treats!

    I have Platys and coloured neo shrimp and put one pellet in. The melee was instant, with every Platy wanting some. Poor shrimp got nothing. So I am going to make a feeding system where only shrimp and perhaps toddler platy get access! 😄

    My shrimp love it

    All shrimp quickly gathered and ate it all. Snails like it too. Will be buying shrimp food here from now on.

    Wow!

    Now I have seemingly ungrateful, entitled shrimp 🤣.... they wouldn't touch anything i put in, blanched veggies included, turned their little shrimp noses up and carried on grazing.... until THESE pellets. They went mad for them and the one pellet I dropped in for my 30 shrimp was gone overnight! I saw multiple shrimp on the pellet fluff constantly when I dropped it in. Amazing! Thank you for making tasty food for my babies!!!

    Nettles are a shrimp dinner winner!

    This is the first time I’ve used ShrimpKeeper.co.uk and I’m very impressed with the nettle food pellets I bought. The pellets themselves are chunkier and bigger than other brands. You also get a large quantity in the bag. My shrimp can sometimes be a bit picky with trying new food but they all jumped on the nettle pellets, I will definitely be trying the other food pellets. It’s also good that Shrimpkeeper use the food themselves.
