Brine Shrimp

[Tetramad]

I got a BS hatcher off Ebay that works great, But I am having to feed them to my fish while they are only 2-3 days old because I am worried they will die. How do I grow then on to a decent size?

Thanks, Mark.

just feed them anything they will fit ion their mouths, like fry food and such... and air bubbles to keep water aerated

i tried it once with some kind of success, i managed to keep them alive for a week but they started stinking up my room so bad i just threw them out. and when i say stink, i mean it

By 3 days old they're merely snacks with little benefits, having used up their yolk sac. Try to feed them within 24 hours for maximum benefit, if you mean them to be BBS.

I use Spiriulina to feed and grow BBS. To be honest it's more trouble than it's worth so I rarely do it at all now.

They do smell pretty ripe after a while
