Quick Product Snapshot

Ingredient and Design Breakdown

The sole ingredient is freshwater river shrimp (Macrobrachium nipoonense), a natural protein source commonly consumed by aquatic reptiles and amphibians in the wild. The retorting process cooks the shrimp inside the sealed can, which preserves freshness without the need for artificial preservatives and softens the shell for improved digestibility.

The compact 1.2 oz can format is designed for single-use convenience, reducing waste and keeping each serving fresh from the moment it is opened.

Setup and Compatibility Guidance

This treat is suitable for aquatic turtles, amphibians such as frogs and newts, aquarium fish, and invertebrates. It can be offered directly from the can or placed in a feeding dish to minimize tank contamination. Remove any uneaten portions promptly to maintain water quality in aquatic habitats.
