I believe so. But let’s ask the expert @Guppysnail

It should be animal safe of course. Since it’s made for the birds, as it were 

Same cuttlebone. The ones for birds usually have a metal clip. Remove the clip before submerging. 
 

They float. They float for a long time. I usually jam one in a hob filter or break it up so it sinks quicker or wrap a strip of plant weight around it.

I did not realize that. Learn something new everyday. Which is the point of everything

Awesome, thanks! Hopefully that will take care of the pH issue. Now I have to get hardier fish.

Really, you already have good ph. Dan from dans fish was just saying on his livestream Wednesday, that’s not a parameter he even worries about. 

But the shrimp probably would like more of the calcium and magnesium for their shells

And don't forget my snail 🐌.

Thanks again everyone for the great advice and knowledge. I'm learning everyday!

Agreed with everything @Tony s is saying. 
ps I wanted that free shipping so bad, but I ended up falling asleep 5 minutes before he announced the winner.

@mynameisnobody I have to watch him later. My favorite channel streams at the same time. 😕
