The Puffer Forum

i have got some frozen shrimp, and was wondering what to do with it! is there a certain part the puffer should eat, should i take legs, and head off?
and finally how often should i feed my 1.5" GSP shrimp?

You can feed your GSP any part of the shrimp you want. You can feed your GSP shrimp as often as you like as long as you make sure not to overfeed it in one go

ok then so how long can i keep the shrimp in the tank if not all of its eaten? i dont want the water to go all yukky. can it be re frozen?

don't leave it in for longer than 24hours.. I will only leave a prawn in for a few hours before I get all paranoid!
Never refreeze any foodstuffs once completely defrosted, please! ... I chop prawns in half frozen before defrosting half..less wastage.

IMO, the amount of food offered should be completely consumed within a few minutes.

Once you see how much is eaten within a few minutes, cut your next shrimp into those sizes to reduce waste.
Unless you have cleaner shrimp (yes cleaner shrimp eat shrimp), remove uneaten food after 5-10 minutes.
