Scuds (or side-swimmers) are freshwater invertebrates belonging to the order Amphipoda. The common name side-swimmer comes from the way that these animals swim. Scuds live at the bottoms of many types and sizes of habitats, where they occur in spaces between the stones, roots, or tangles of vegetation. The most common they are in shallow areas of streams, rivers, ponds, or lakes (in a depths not exceeding one meter). What do Scuds eat? You can feed your gammarus any kind of invert-friendly food, including blenched vegetables, fish food pellets, dry leaves and algae. In nature, amphipoda are detrivores and scavengers, so they are pretty good at finding food from their environment – even if you forget to feed them for a couple of days, they will likely be fine as long as there’s enough decaying organic matter in your tank. It is better to avoid overfeeding them fish food containing copper as this mineral is toxic to inverts in large quantities. A great live food for Fish, Axolotls , Newts, S alamanders, African Dwarf Frogs, and many more! Total refund available if dead on arrival (DoA) within 4 hours of package delivery time with video.
