Is this bas for shrimps because of copper?

We've fed our fish these for years and the shrimp have always been fine. In fact, if any bits are missed, the little guys always help out and eat what's left! However, I can only speak for this brand. I don't like risking 'plain packet brands' just in case.

Why does the price say £11.95 (£17.56 / 100 g)? Isn't this bag 250g so it should be £4.78 / 100g

Amazon do the pricing but yes it should be around £4.78 / 100g

hi what is the expire date on this product please ?

The expiry date on the current batch of alage wafers is 05/2017

Does anyone have exerience of this food with guppies in the tank as well. So far everything i put in for my pleco is demolished by the guppies?

I had both a few years ago I feed them at the same time with the Algae tablet and I also had food for bottom feeders that sank to the bottom. if you give a pinch of flakes that float they notice that and the bottom food reach the bottom before they can grab it. Hope this can help or any aquatic shop will help you mine did.
