Please read the whole website, perform searches and read the "Rules" section of this forum. You have just broken quite a few rules with your first post. Please do not make any further posts before *at least* reading the rules. Consider this a warning, first and last.

Once you actually read the website you will find out that rice is not the right food solution.

Hi Armando and welcome. I said this in another post but it applies here too, the ghost shrimp deaths are most likely due to the stress and poor treatment they received before you got them . They are treated so because the suppliers and the store owner look at them as feeders and bulk items istead of the interesting living beings they are

About food, you can use almost any type of fish food as long as copper and heavy metals are not major ingredients. I personally use Hakhari Crab Cuisine and Micro Wafers, the later seems to be better as they are individual sized and the shrimp love them

Topic closed for obvious reasons. It's amazing how the whole website can be read in mere minutes and how it's just so hard to spell "the" instead of "teh" and "should" instead of "shuold"....
