Shell also provides roughage.....

Thats fiber right?

Just make sure to cut the tail and spike off (which I'm sure you already knew). I manage to jab myself a few times a week with the shrimp tails, sharp little buggers.

yes, roughage = fiber, but it also = additional nutrients.

For my large rays I feed the entire shrimp. Head and all. Other than a few shell pieces nothing gets left behind.

pellets all the way

I AGREE... PLUS IT IS EASY..


i do feed some shrimp though, i leave the shell on, but always remove the tail. I once was feeding my florida gar shrimp with tail on and when he was swallowing it blood was gusing out of his gills... i would not want to rish that happening with my rays.

I also feed my rays the whole shrimp tail and shell included. They gulp them up with no problem. It does make more of a mess but I also heard its good for them.

i remove the shell from the tail since it's quite sharp. but leave the rest on , including the prawn's "feet".
