Feeding shrimps with automatic feeder.

One or two week for shrimp no food should be a problem...put ketapang leaves more into the tank...or longer the light on the tank..this should algae grow so that the shrimp can munch on...

Try to find some ricca shrimp known to munch on them if they are hungry..

Just pay a visit to QianHu, pick some on the road for free...that was what I usually did when I need to top up my supply.

Sembawang Park also got a lot, but it will be a bit salty.

Remember to wash them and air dry them. They can be kept for a long time.

HEHE how you know salty?

The tank had PINK substrate for that day until I finally vacuum most of it out...

POWER !

There are a few super DIY guys here. Evil, we wait for ur invention.

The auto feeder i use for my discus tank is 'modified using a small plastic strip over the outlet area. This helps to give me a inbetween amount.

I did this for my feeder too.It works

Feed once per day will do, just before sleep, quite sure the autofeeder will be at home by then.

I think you didnt give the feeder proper instruction, just in case using the feeder, under feed is alway better then over feed.
