Frozen shrimp for f8?

Post by Tang »

Hey guys, I havent been on in a long time, but i set up a brackish tank and have had 3 bb gobies in there for a few months. Yesterday I got a f8, so I bought raw shrimp with the shell and tail still on it from the grocery store. I was just wondering if I should leave the shell on, or how I should feed it to him. Thanks

Keep the shell on. While still frozen cut a slice or 2(or however much you feed your puff) of shrimp and keep the rest frozen. Thaw with tank water. I add fresh garlic to the water while its thawing, but thats not needed.
