Freeze Dried River Shrimp

[Squidward]

Hi All,

Recently I bought a tub of freeze dried river shrimp for my Reedfish.
Only problem is that it floats!

I've also tried soaking it for a few hours, but it still seems to float.
Anyone else found this?
Any ideas of how I can get it to sink?

Thanks
Squidward

So, you're saying your fish won't eat them because they don't sink? They will eventually. How long do you leave the food in there? The fish will eat it, sooner or later.

Reedfish are primarily bottom feeders.

We know

My Cories are bottom feeders but they'll turn upside down and feed from the surface if the mood takes them xD

Have you tried soaking the food first?

EDIT: In dechlorinated water first

What about trying Algea Waffers? Wait, do they eat those?
