Not sure what you mean by pill, but I break up an algae wafer or two into 3-4 pieces. My shrimp will dive in that take the entire piece away from the fish. You can try Crab Bites (small sinking pellets) also. I find it fun to watch the shrimp take food away from something that might decide he looks like lunch one day.
