Review: Great nutrition for Blue Lobster (crayfish) - Love this brand , my wife used Hikari for years for her bettas and she suggested it The blue lobster or crayfish LOVES the food! Only drawback is that they are small and my other fish eat them before they make it down to the crayfish so I had to use long tweezers. So everyone in. The tank loves it. I bought this brand because he had just molted and the brand had so many vitamins minerals and nutrients. The value is amazing. I guess they taste great cuz the tank fights over them. They don't smell super strong outside the package and smell up my fish tank cabinet either. The bag is durable and zipper locks closed which takes up way less room. I will buy again but maybe something larger pellets Review: Smells great and the snails like them ! - Snails really love these! ## Features - Higher levels of calcium to promote shell development - Quickly sinks to the aquarium bottom allowing your hard shelled friends to eat at their leisure - Ideal for lobsters, shrimp, underwater crawfish and other aquatic scavengers - Promotes desirable form and coloration ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0002DID8G | | Additional Features | Aquatic scavenger-specific formula and enhanced calcium for shell development | | Age Range (Description) | All Life Stages | | Age Range Description | All Life Stages | | Allergen Information | Crab | | Animal Food Diet Type | Veterinary Diet | | Best Sellers Rank | #41,150 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #322 in Reptile & Amphibian Food | | Brand | Hikari | | Brand Name | Hikari | | Breed Recommendation | Small Breeds | | Container Type | Pouch | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 952 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | Small | | Flavor | Fish | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00042055273091 | | Item Form | Stick | | Item Type Name | pet-food | | Item Weight | 1.76 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Hikari | | Manufacturer Part Number | 042055273091 | | Model Number | 042055273091 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion | Birthday | | Product Benefits | Promotes shell development and suitable for various aquatic scavengers | | Recommended Uses For Product | Aquarium Feeding, Pet Care | | Special Ingredients | Fish meal, Shrimp meal, Fish oil, Possibly enriched calcium | | Specific Uses For Product | Behavior | | Target Species | Hermit Crab | | UPC | 042055273091 | | Unit Count | 1.76 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** All Life Stages - **Brand:** Hikari - **Flavor:** Fish - **Item Form:** Stick - **Specific Uses For Product:** Behavior ## Images ![Hikari Crab Cuisine 50g - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81q+XQDhQAL.jpg) ![Hikari Crab Cuisine 50g - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81P-v2JabjL.jpg) ![Hikari Crab Cuisine 50g - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81DgybzKDwL.jpg) ![Hikari Crab Cuisine 50g - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51j4nZmOrsL.jpg) ![Hikari Crab Cuisine 50g - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/610KTf0qYQL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Whats the ingredients in this?** A: Fish meal, flakes corn, wheat flour, rice bran, soybean meal, corn gluten meal, krill meal, fish pil, brewers yeast, DL-methionine, garlic, astaxanthin, canthaxanthin, choline chloride, vitamin E, stabilized vitamin C, inositol, riboflavin, vitamin A, thiamin mononitraye, pyridoxne hydrochloride, niacin, menadione sodium, bisulfate complex, etc, etc. **Q: Does it contain copper?
