Boiled Shrimp

How long can you keep boiled shrimp in the fridge? We boiled a bunch on Saturday...should it still be good tomorrow...or should I go ahead and throw it out?
72 hours is the generally accepted limit for properly-refrigerated* leftovers. Freeze them today, or eat them tomorrow.
*According to food safety guidelines, that means they didn't spend more than 2 hours between 40 and 140°F after cooking before being refrigerated.
