Feeding begins during the first protozoeal stage when the larvae cease to live on yolk and begin to seek nourishment in the water. Fecundity at pink shrimps increased in direct proportion to body weight and as a cube of total length. They are usually found in the Gulf of Mexico over calcareous mud and sands of over mixtures of shell and sand. Pink shrimps feed mostly on the bottom and are regularly omnivores.
