    So about feeding frozen market shrimp

    I wanted to feed my Bichirs some frozen shrimp. Thing is on the backside it says that there is a chemical used as a preservative inside it. Would it harm them in any way ? It was the only thing that was in it other than shrimp and water. Google said it was fine but just wanted to make sure.
