Are there any dangers of eating shrimp?

The reason for this statement is that the current water quality is not safe enough to eat raw fish and shrimp. Of course, shrimps rely on water quality to survive, but it is not guaranteed that people can eat live shrimps.

Shrimp will also gradually adapt to small pollution. And shrimp farmers will use hormones, antibiotics, etc. to breed them. Safety will always be improved after cooking. Therefore, it is better to eat less live shrimp.

The shrimp is bred in freshwater and cultured in seawater enclosures. It is named after the "enclosure culture". The shrimp looks like a prawn, but its shell is softer than that of a prawn. Its body is not as big as a prawn, usually about the size of a middle finger. The production is high in the estuary sea area along the coast of Guangdong. It is fat, thin-shelled and has delicious meat.

Juvenile shrimps (no more than 6cm) are dark green to dark green, and adults (more than 6cm) are light brown-yellow, with dense light brown spots all over their bodies. Some sellers in the market use white shrimps (prawns) to impersonate shrimps. When choosing, you should pay attention to the color and spots. It is easy to identify.

Why do farmed shrimps not like to grow and grow small?

How many months? How many centimeters? Is it because I didn't feed them enough food? Shrimp eat a lot in hot weather. But the shrimps seem to be raised in seawater. Will the current desalination have an impact on their growth?
