Is it possible to rear newly hatched brine shrimp?? I once tried in a 1ft cube with lots of aeration in a marine solution feeding bakers' yeast and green pond water..... After a week, they grew to approximately 1mm and none lasted beyond 10 days.

Around here, the eggs are extremely expensive and I feed all fish fry daily for the 1st 2 weeks. Will help a lot if I can set up a culture.

They also need regular water exchange
