Thanks for reaching out about Arrow. Dried shrimp is an inappropriate diet for fish as low in calcium (no bones), high in phosphorus. Being dried, many other nutrients (vitamins) are destroyed. A commercial pellet in addition to whole fish is recommended. Monitor water quality as healthy water is important for a healthy fish. Good luck.
