Freeze-dried mysis shrimp are small freshwater shrimp (often called “opossum shrimp”) that have been preserved to retain nutrients while being shelf-stable. A protein-focused diet for feeder insects and isopods. They’re also a high-protein, highly palatable food used across aquatics and some reptile/amphibian setups.
What they’re good for
Fish: Great for bettas, guppies, tetras, cichlids, and many marine species
Amphibians: Frogs/newts will take them readily
Reptiles (occasionally): Small aquatic or semi-aquatic species
Isopods
