raw and cooked shrimp

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Go to walmart and get the 2lb raw shrimp for your Ps. Also, remember to pick up some coctail sauce so you can eat the cooked shrimp.

My fish won't touch the cooked shrimp. I guess they don't like the seasonings in the boil mix.
 
the shrimp is white? white usually means raw. cooked is usually red in color.
 
cooked shrimp doesnt have good protien but it wont kill them and it will give them what they need to survive, just try and get uncooked next time. fish fillets work too

been feeding my P's frozen cooked shrimp cuz i couldent find raw, and i got a big bag for cheap. Is cooked shrimp ok for the fish or is this a bad idea?


Cooked is not good:grinno:. Why feed useless foods (JMO:D)

Get uncooked and devained at Albertsons in a frozen ziplock bag. Be careful and read the bags cause the cooked and uncooked look the same.
Bag cost 19.99 for 40-50 2-3" shrimps. Just take off the shells and dice
 
Why do you take off the shells? Ive seen several people mention that but I am wondering why? I usually leave the shells on and the vein in if its not taken out by the store....

The lone time i left the shell on my red bellies didn't eat it anyways so it's just been less work for me.
 
cooked is okay, but not as good as raw... go to a grocery store and get a bag of uncooked shrimp...
