What Do You Feed Your Freshwater Shrimp?

[Abyssmal]

I keep cherry shrimp in my planted tanks and feed them absolutely nothing. All nourishment comes as byproducts of the plants and uneaten fish food. Temps are 75-78. My 5g population hovers around 2 dozen. My 36g has 3-4 dozen and every couple of months I find atleast 4 dozen in my 2217.

I gotta say, this is pretty spot on. I have always found that if I have the vegetation growing abundantly, and the water quality is even just decent, the shrimp will reproduce without much effort. I have even kept them with little musk turtles, which are funny and clumsy little creatures, and they clean up on the leftover turtle food.
