Flower Shrimp buying questions
Can flower shrimp be supplied head-on or peeled?
Headless shell-on (HLSO) is the only form listed for flower shrimp. If you need it head-on or peeled, say so in your enquiry and we will tell you whether that form can be supplied before quoting.
Is flower shrimp the same as tiger prawn?
They are listed as different species: flower shrimp as Penaeus semisulcatus, and tiger prawn as Penaeus monodon. Because both are sold under "tiger" trade names, include the scientific name your buyers require and we will confirm the species before quoting.
