Full delivery informationHow to feed
Offer Snowflake once or twice a week as a supplement to a varied diet. Wait until the previous portion has mostly been eaten before adding more.
Portion guide and checking leftovers
Starting portions: fewer than 10 shrimp, a small piece under ¼ pellet; 10–20 shrimp, about ¼ pellet; 21–50 shrimp, about ½ pellet; 51–100 shrimp, about 1 pellet; larger colonies, up to 2 pellets split between feeding areas. These are starting points, not targets: pellet size, natural grazing and appetite vary. Start smaller if unsure.
Check the feeding area daily. Remove excess if it accumulates or is no longer being grazed. Snowflake adds organic matter as it decomposes; monitor water quality. White growth alone does not establish that material is safe to leave in the tank.
Ingredients and storage
100% soyabean hulls. Store somewhere cool and dry, away from direct sunlight. Reseal after use.

Snowflake Pellets – 100% Soyabean Hulls
Snowflake pellets are made from 100% soyabean hulls for Neocaridina, Caridina, Amano and other freshwater shrimp. They provide fibre, protein and other nutrients, and break apart into soft flakes for your colony to graze on.
Key Benefits:
✅ 100% Natural & Plant-Based – Made from premium-quality soybean hulls, free from artificial additives and preservatives.
✅ Promotes Biofilm Growth – As the food breaks down, it encourages the growth of beneficial biofilm, a natural food source for shrimp.
✅ Long-Lasting Grazing – The pellets break apart into soft flakes. Feed sparingly: like any food, uneaten material can affect water quality as it decomposes.
✅ High in Fiber & Nutrients – Supports healthy digestion, growth, and molting cycles.
✅ Perfect for All Shrimp Species – Ideal for Neocaridina, Caridina, Amano, and other freshwater shrimp.
How to Use:
- Feed 1-2 times per week as part of a balanced diet.
- Drop a small amount (approximately Starting portions: fewer than 10 shrimp, a small piece under ¼ pellet; 10–20 shrimp, about ¼ pellet; 21–50 shrimp, about ½ pellet; 51–100 shrimp, about 1 pellet; larger colonies, up to 2 pellets split between feeding areas. These are starting points, not targets: pellet size, natural grazing and appetite vary. Start smaller if unsure.) into the aquarium.
- The food will quickly break apart into soft flakes, which spread across the substrate, allowing shrimp to graze naturally.
- Check leftovers daily and remove excess food if it is accumulating or no longer being grazed. Avoid adding more while a substantial amount remains, and monitor water quality.
Storage Instructions:
Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Reseal the packaging after each use to maintain freshness.
