Shrimp Lollies

Perfect for snacks

I started with the mixed pack and after testing them in 4 of my shrimp tanks, the algae lollies were the ones that they consistently favored. I'm sure shrimp enjoy all of the flavors, but the algae sticks just attract neocaridina shrimp like magnets. If I put one in my RCS tank (my biggest colony at the moment) there will be at least 15 of shrimp on the stick within 10 minutes. Sometimes I catch them crawling over each other to find a spot to eat. My most recent tank is full of juvenile sunkist orange shrimp and they haven't quite figured out the feeding dish but I was surprised at how fast they realized the lolly was food and latched on. Since they are newer and young it is good to see them eating something so quickly and easily. These are a little pricey but worth it to me. I usually give them once every few weeks as a treat. I realized the other day that these sticks provide an added bonus of being able to see if my darker colored shrimp are carrying eggs. I have a tank full of black rose shrimp and it's nearly impossible to see if they are berried the way you can with red/orange/blue shrimp. I noticed one of the bigger females fanning while she was on the stick eating and with the way the stick was positioned I was able to see up the underside of her skirt to find that she was, indeed, carrying eggs. Hooray! So not only do these allow you to check by having something the shrimp swarm all over, but it also allows you to see their underside to check for eggs as well.

mu shrimp love them

Great for shrimp, but feed in moderation and don't leave in the tank for too long! It's a great rotation in their diet and fun to watch them climb up and down

I literally just put one in. There is already blue shrimp and the guppies are enjoying it also.

I bought this product for my 20g long shrimp tank. My tank has been established for 6 months now and have grown to have tons neocardina blue and red rili shrimps. I also sell my shrimps too for some extra cash. I had done my regular water change and decided to throw a lolly in. I had put in 2 of them before and the shrimp were meh to them so I tried a new flavor. The color was light brown. No more than a hour later and I had 20 shrimps dead. It's been 4 days since then and I have had approximately 70-100 shrimp die on me, and all my snails too. There were so many dead bodies, that I had to siphon them instead of taking them out with a net. I have done multiple water changes since the massacre, sometimes having to do 3 a day because of how many died. Not many shrimp are dying now that it's been a few days, however I now only have 14 shrimps left out of about 100. I have ruled out all the other possibilities for these deaths. The last one was this lolly, as it was a new flavor. And upon further inspection other people in the reviews have had shrimp die on them too. I didn't see those reviews and faced the consequences. I trusted them because glasgarten had been a reputable brand for me. Thank lorde that none of the fish died, but the shrimps did. It is not worth the risk, nor the trauma to buy these. You would not believe how many dead bodies there were. Absolutely devastating. Listen to these reviews. Do not kill your shrimp!

I bought these for my shrimp and they go crazy for them, but the funniest part is how much the other fish love them too. My honey gourami, Otocinclus, and Corydoras are always trying to sneak in and steal the food even when I offer their own. My mystery snails even climbs right up the stick like it is a little snack pole made just for them. The sticks are easy to place in the substrate and they stay upright well so all the shrimp (and others) can gather and graze. They also last a while which keeps everyone busy and gives me some great viewing time. These are a fun treat that brings a lot of activity to my tanks.

I have like 60 shrimp. I haven't really seen any on the things they just disintegrate or the sucker fish go after them or snails .. Update one month later after trying it a few more times i would have to say I haven't seen more than one shrimp on it at a time. This product, it's way too expensive in my opinion. They crowd over the malberry leaves more. Then, these sticks and both of my tanks. $16 is crazy for something that dissolves overnight. If the shrimp don't eat it

Great

I dropped a Shrimp Lolly into my tank and within seconds every shrimp in the aquarium was swarming around it! My shrimp are picking at it non‑stop and look more active than ever during feeding time. The stick design is super convenient (no mess on the substrate), and the lollies stay firmly in place so even the shyest shrimp get their share. Water stayed crystal clear, too. If you want your shrimp to line up at feeding time, these are a must‑try! •Just a heads-up: If you have a smaller shrimp colony, keep in mind that the feeding time might take longer, and as the lolly softens over time, it can start to break down and leave some residue on the substrate. Still, it’s a great treat overall—just something to be aware of for tanks with fewer shrimp.

Dissolved too quick, didn't see shrimp eating off them

Mes crevettes adorent cette gâterie

Of the colours I've tried, my shrimp have shown very little interest in these, which is a real shame. It may be because I have a heavily planted tank community tank and there is plenty of alternative food for my critters, however, this was quite a pricey purchase and I had hoped for a better result. Can't fault the seller though. Very good service from them, just doesn't seem to be drawing out my cherries and amanos.
