i have kept shrimp alive at my house for as long as 5 days. I use 150 quart ice chests and i have saltwater aquarium equipment. a protein skimmer is the best thing that you could use to keep shrimp alive. it foams out all the waste that the shrimp generate and it pumps out super oxygenated water. i put around 150 shrimp in and fill with water about half way and run the skimmer. i usually go out one or 2 nights before i go fishing and get my shrimp to make sure i have enough to fish with. now mind you, a protein skimmer is going to cost you lots of money but they are very effective.
