Shell on or off?

[Trevor Robertson]

Okay well I have made a new additon to my tank. (good ol birthday money)!

I have purchased a Zebra Moray Eal and when I purchased it I asked the LFS to show me that it eats and they did, he told me that you just take a shrimp and peel the shell off and feed away. Well I have done some reading and some simple thinking and wonder if you really need to remove the shell. I have been removing it (from the tiger prawn) that I have been feeding but I wonder why?

Wondering what some of you do, and other food suggestions.

Thanks for the tips, oh and I love this fish!
