## Description

Fluval Bug Bites is a complete fish food that features a unique insect-based formulation, enriched with multiple quality proteins and carbohydrates that are ideal for shrimp. As shrimp are an invertebrate (without a spine), the exoskeleton serves to protect its body. For this reason, this formula is enriched with both vitamin D3 and calcium. A high concentration of Black Soldier Fly Larvae and Salmon (#1 and #2 ingredients) also ensure an enhanced growth rate and superior condition. Insects are hunted by fish in the wild as they offer a widely available food source. The instinctive feeding habit is the foundation behind Bug Bites, which are formulated with nutrient-rich insect larvae and enriched with multiple quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Most freshwater fish are omnivores and regularly feed on insects in the wild. However, not all insects are created equally when it comes to a fish’s diet. Bug Bites are formulated with sustainably harvested Black Soldier Fly Larvae (#1 ingredient across all formulas), which are raised on fruits and vegetables for exceptional “super food” nutrition. Using a unique cultivation process, BSFL are grown under controlled conditions for total sustainability that preserves natural environments. Under controlled conditions, Black Soldier Flies produce larvae, which naturally feed on decaying organic matter. Unconsumed fruits and vegetables are used as larvae feed. The larvae consume the feed, converting the nutrients into protein and healthy fat. After a 2-week feeding cycle, the larvae are harvested and dried. The dried larvae are mixed with other high-quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements to offer a complete and balanced daily diet. Unlike big brand fish foods, Bug Bites are always prepared in small batches for superior control and quality assurance. The proximity of our ingredients (most of which are delivered right before production) also offers maximum freshness, which translates into better palatability.

Review: Great Shrimp Food: Whole Ingredients - The fluval bug bites for shrimp are an example of good food for your fish. The first ingredient is black soldier fly larvae followed by salmon so this is a protein and omega fatty acid focused meal which is excellent for fish health and color. There is no "fish meal" in the ingredients so you are getting whole ingredients here, not a cheap allgamation of fish like you see in some big box brands. The shaker design is interesting, it has a small opening at the cap and you shake out how much you want. Both fish and shrimp love it, you can see how it falls in the video, it is relatively slow falling but it does not float so perfect for shrimp. I highly recommend this product.
Review: All the critters seem to love it. - My cherry shrimp eat this up and love it. I give this stuff to my shrimp every once and awhile even though they have plenty of natural biofilm, algae, fish food and fish poop to eat. Seems to be good quality because I have to hide it from my guppies so those pigs don't eat it all up. I will use a long straw to strategically place it in little nooks that only the shrimp will really go, and within minutes they are all over it pigging out. Size of it is pretty good, smaller guppies cant seem to gulp it up as its a bit too large, so that helps leave some for the shrimp but they will still nibble it till its gone. The pieces are about the size of a larger coarse grain of sand. Good price, hopefully good nutrition also... *** EDIT, turns out my Ramshorn snails love to munch on this stuff also, because if it lands near them, they are on it in no time.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Received expired product — any suggestions as to how to proceed?**
A: Send back to Amazon.

**Q: What is the ash percentage?**
A: Crude fiber is 6%. There is no mention of ash % on the back of the label.

**Q: It is my understanding that copper is toxic to shrimp and most invertebrates.  Why is it an ingredient in a food designed for shrimp?**
A: Copper can be lethal to shrimp at roughly 0.3ppm but a small amount is needed for good health, in particular in their blood. 
The amount of copper in food is not luckily concerning! 
If anything I'd watch out for copper in aquatic plant fertilizers and aquarium medications for fish

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best bang for buck!
*by L***B on April 5, 2026*

Fluval Bug Bites is an excellent food choice for Neocaridina shrimp. My shrimp have shown great vitality and vibrant color since I started feeding them this high quality, protein-rich diet. The small, natural ingredients are perfect for their tiny mouths, and I appreciate that it's made with sustainable, insect based proteins. Overall, I highly recommend Fluval Bug Bites for healthy and happy shrimp!
