Shrimp help Food

[Bizzaro]

I just bought 5lbs of shrimp does it have to be pilled? some one help me from this long and boring task mostly going to be feed to clownknifes and aro

It doesn't have to be peeled- the shell actually gives the fish a bit of calcium and other nutrients. You may want to take the tail spines off before feeding though.

my rtc enjoys them just as they are. you may want to rinse them off first though.

If they have been frozen, I would remove the shell...if they have never been frozen, then just pinch the spike off, with the tailfins...

Yeah she don't
sein fish them,
handle them in holding,
let them die before they are eaten'
or
individual quick freeze them, dead with the heads twisted off...

And I'm not too sure but i don't think there is any saltwater shrimp in the freshwater rivers and flood plains on the equatorial belt
