Feeding Bass just shrimp?

[DIDYSIS]

What would the negatives be? I can get shrimp for 15.00 per 5 lbs. Good deal and cheaper than any pellets. But would this be a good primary food ?

mix it up a bit, fish fellets, earthworms, scallops, pellets of course, really any kind of bug sold as reptile food.

I understand that's the norm but what about just feeding one thing?

OK fyi I do mix up the food with my bass. As the original question said what would be the negative if any just feeding shrimp?

I'd say 80% of what I feed is shrimp and tilapia. I typically alternate worms/pellets/live once or twice a week. My fish grow like weeds and look incredible so I guess it's alright.

I prefer 80% pellets and 20 % market shrimp and dried shrimp
