Not only is it removed by chemical filtration, but the individual shrimp in the aquarium. Shrimp and freshwater crawfish have an exoskeletal that requires additional nutrients for biological processes such as peeling and penetration pressure regulation. These nutrients help crustaceans remove the old exoskeleton and strengthen new exoskeleton. Use when preparing tap water in a new aquarium for water changing, or adding water from evaporation. Helps to quickly remove chemical filtration such as carbon and other resins to prevent absorption and optimize available nutrients Review: Works like its made Review: Didn't receive dosing cap. Label also slapped right over the instructions and peels off in peices. It's really not that difficult to not have these issues. ## Features - Fresh water shrimp and crawfish need extra nutrients for peeling and penetrating pressure regulation - Replaces minerals and trace elements required for the development of a powerful exoskeleton - We recommend temporarily removing chemical filtration such as carbon during dosage - Suitable for all freshwater shrimp, crawfish, lobster - CONVENIENT DOSE CAP INCLUDED - Add 5ml (1 teaspoon) for every gallon of temperature-controlled tap water or purified water ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07HGL5DK2 | | Allergen Information | Allergen-Free | | Batteries Included | No | | Breed Recommendation | All breed sizes | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (1,378) | | Date First Available | January 2, 2019 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item model number | 100536240 | | Number of items | 1 | | Pet Life Stage | All Life Stages | | Size | 4 Fluid Ounces | | Special Features | Shrimp Must Have | | Storage Information | Keep the lid firmly in place and store in a cool dry place | | batteries required | No | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Aqueon - **Item Form:** Liquid - **Liquid Volume:** 4 Fluid Ounces - **Manufacturer:** Central Garden & Pet - **UPC:** 015905001076 ## Images ![Aqueon Shrimp Essentials 4 fl. oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716Hn+9TPUL.jpg) ![Aqueon Shrimp Essentials 4 fl. oz - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81dYga+Z-rL.jpg) ![Aqueon Shrimp Essentials 4 fl. oz - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7140qH89-4L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this a water conditioner?** A: Yes and no. It doesn’t have dechlorination abilities. But it does provide essential trace minerals to aquarium water. If you use distilled or RO water in your tanks, there tends to be a lack of minerals that your fish/shrimp need. This helps provide it. I use this with water changes or adding water due to evaporation. Also a must to a start up tank. **Q: How long should i remove the carbon filtration?** A: Hi there! We recommend between 24-48 hours. **Q: I have a newly cycled nano tank. Would it be ok to leave my filter in so I don’t lose my cycling.** A: Is you carbon connected to the rest of your filter media? If so then if you leave the carbon in it will remove any “meds” or additive you introduce. It’s better to leave the carbon out for about 24-48 hours while dosing. If you keep your filter media wet in a bowl or bucket then it will not loose the BBA. Also you can keep your filter running. Just remove the carbon if you have any. **Q: Is this all needed to make ro/di water for shrimp? or are other minerals and additives needed?** A: Hi there! Yes, this should be all you'll need to simulate RO water. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***R on February 19, 2026* Works like its made ### ⭐ Review *by B***N on February 19, 2026* Didn't receive dosing cap.
