I Finally Have Cherrys !

[1234-fishy-freind]

As of today i am the proud owner of 6 baby cherry shrimp, after asking my lfs to get some in they did and i went to buy some today for £2 each. I can tell they are babies because they are only 0.5 cm long and dont have full colour yet which is good becuase i get to keep them longer.
I have just one question, i know they eat algea and if there is none i can feed them fish flake but can i feed them the crustacean pellets i feed my lobster? , on the tub it says for freshwater crabs and lobsters and since they can i eat it could my shrimp ?
thanks

You can feed them crab pellets as the calcium is good for them
