Why Invertebrate Keepers Choose It

Feeding aquatic invertebrates can be tricky - surface foods often go uneaten and foul the water. Zoo Med's sinking stick formula solves this by delivering nutrition directly to the bottom, where shrimp, crabs, and lobsters naturally forage. It's a practical, reliable choice for keepers who want a clean tank and healthy invertebrates.

Quick Product Snapshot

Material & Design Breakdown

The sinking stick format is engineered to reach bottom-dwelling invertebrates efficiently. Unlike floating pellets or flakes, these sticks descend quickly through the water column, minimizing surface waste and reducing the risk of uneaten food decomposing at the top of the tank. The dry food format is easy to handle, portion, and store between feedings.

Setup & Compatibility Guidance

This food is suitable for use in freshwater aquarium setups housing aquatic shrimp, crabs, and lobsters. Drop the appropriate amount of food sticks into the tank and allow them to sink to the substrate where your invertebrates can forage naturally. Feed in amounts your invertebrates can consume within a reasonable time to maintain water quality.

Care & Maintenance

Store in a cool, dry place with the lid tightly sealed between feedings. Remove any uneaten food after feeding sessions to help maintain water quality.
