Feeding Fire Shrimp

I put two fire shrimps in my tank a few days ago.
Do you hand feed them or do they find scraps on the sand bed?

They'll get scraps from the sand bed, also when you feed the tank they like to steal from the fish

I feed my skunk cleaner a piece of krill before i feed anything else in the tank to distract him and prevent him from bothering the corals. He swims right into my hand and takes it from my fingers

My FS is a bold guy and has no trouble getting food on his own. I caught him and my yellow tang snuggled up one morning for a cleaning service. YT will let him know when he is done w/ a slap to the shrimp's face. Apparently FS is a little too needy ;Clown

A little tip, feed the shrimp before feeding any LPS. Otherwise they will steal the food from them.
