Feeding your cats market shrimp

[OscarRobinson]

How do you prepare market shrimp for your catfish? Do you cook it or feed it raw? Shell or no shell?

Cooking the shrimp destroys some of the vitamins I think. I feed shrimp occasionally to my GT, just raw with no shell.

Feed it raw without shell. You may need to chop the shrimp into small pieces if your cats is small and for easy to swallow. Don't forget to wash the shrimp first before feeding it to your cats. This is to reduce clouding of water from the shrimp.

Thanks. I was peeling it but wasn't sure about raw or cooked.

Everyone in my tanks love it. From baby turtle and convicts to oscars and pacu. Nothing left behind.

Just don't get the fresh stuff. Stick with frozen.
I found that our local fish market uses a "Safe for food" antibacterial spray near the sea food and if overspray gets on the sea food it will kill your fish.
