Enhance your shrimp tank’s ecosystem with Lubao Bags—slow-release microbial boosters beloved by expert shrimp breeders. These biodegradable “tea bag”–style pouches are packed with a blend of soybean flour, rice bran, yeast, and amino acids, all designed to promote biofilm and green wall growth—key for shrimp nutrition and tank stability.

Key Benefits:

  • Encourages robust biofilm growth—providing a natural grazing surface for shrimp

  • Supports cycling new tanks—slowly releases ammonia to feed nitrifying bacteria, especially helpful in setups with inert substrates

  • Ideal holiday feeding solution—maintains shrimp grazing routines while you're away

Usage Tips:

  1. Soak each bag in a small container of tank water for 3–6 days, doing daily water changes before adding to your display aquarium

  2. One bag per 50–100 L (13–26 gal) typically supports a month of biofilm growth

  3. The bag can remain in the tank for 1–2 months depending on shrimp density

  4. Not a full replacement for regular feeding—use alongside your normal diet

  5. If the bag breaks, remove debris promptly and perform a small water change

Why It Works for Shrimp:
Shrimp thrive on biofilm and micro-organisms, and Lubao Bags provide a stable, easy-to-maintain grazing source. This can boost baby shrimp survival rates, support breeding activity, and improve overall health and activity in the colony.
