Boiling 100+ lbs of shrimp

What’s the best way to do this? I have a 120qt pot that I always use for seafood. Was thinking of doing three, 30-35lb batches. Was worried about changing the water after the second boil. Not used to boiling that much shrimp so I’m assuming the water won’t be near dirty as boiling a bunch of crawfish.
Was probably going to have one pot (100qt) for fixings and the other pot (120qt) for shrimp. Any suggestions or sounds about right?

I would do my vegetables and 1 batch of shirmp in 1 pot and then 2 batches of shrimp in the 2nd pot. Whether or not you use the 100 or 120 doesn't matter to much.
Shrimp take a lot of seasoning to get spicy. I would almost double what you put for a crawfish boil, for the 2nd batch I would add about half of what you originally put.

Although I didn’t specify about the seasoning, that’s exactly what I was questioning. Was also going to do the fixings separate.
Perfect. Appreciate the info.

Go stale kracker method and boil shrimp without out any season in just lemon water then use other pot to soak with the seasoning
