Default Baby Spinach are shrimp's best friend

Shrimps loves baby spinach! be it cherry, CRS or CBS! as I have been fed them baby spinach before, I know how popular it is. I recently introduced this to a friend and he had a massive food frenzy in his tank as well!

As I didn't have much time to get it from the supermarket, I managed to get some off him as the packet had a really huge quantity that it was quite impossible to finish during the expiry date.


Within 5 seconds of adding the spinach!


A video of how excited they are below

this actually happens a lot. When I took it out of the pot, it was dark green. But when in the water, it becomes lush green. I guess it has something to do with the light?
