when shrimps feed on pellets/algae wafer, all the food debris will fly all over the place.
just wondering is there a concern if those debris trap inside the gravel? especially if only moss/pellia is kept (no rooted plants) or is it recommended to have a bare bottom tank?

Shrimps are scavenger and can take care of reachache food debris.

Feed sparely and use a good filter is important to ensure there is not too much wasted food and also to maintain good water quality.

Dont over feed, just give them enough food to finish in a day.
