Questions
Is this good for Oscar fish
- The pieces are very tiny. At $7+ it would be quite expensive to feed a larger fish.

I'm a little confused about the copper content. I've read on several websites not to put anything into the tank with copper if you have shrimp (about to buy Amano Shrimp), including medications with copper as it can kill invertebrates. Explain please?
- Copper is a trace mineral that is required for shrimp to survive. The trace amount cannot harm them when the product is used as directed. If you do have have enough copper in their food to replace that which is lost during their normal waste elimination process, they will slowly perish. The copper has to be the right amount and the proper type, which Shrimp Cuisine provides.

I noticed the product contains "safe copper". I have snails which are sensitive to copper. Is it safe for snails that are in the tank with the shrimp?
- Yes, there should be no issue unless you overfeed in a big way daily

Is this good for Ghost Shrimp???
- Sure, but you can also use Crab Cuisine or Algae Wafers

Woul this be a good choice of food for brine shrimp?
- We would not recommend it. Live brine shrimp need a much smaller particle size floating in the water column.
