I don't know how long to keep it, but I wouldn't use it. I always cook any type of fish right away.

Almost all "fresh" shrimp is actually thawed frozen shrimp. I would just buy frozen and defrost the day before.
If you already have the shrimp I would just smell it and see if it still looks good. You will know if its bad.

If it doesn't smell like salt water anymore and more of a fishy stench, EXTRA slimey, black and brown spotting underneath shell, if it's really bad it will smell like ammonia.

Re: Fresh shrimp..how long is it good?

Thanks everyone...thankfully it was still good....I used the easiest recipe from pinterest...melt a stick of butter, put a sliced lemon and shrimp on the pan, sprinkle with a packet of italian seasoning...bake at 350 for 15 minutes....my family LOVED it!
