Frozen Baby Brine Shrimp

[augustaranger]

I have a few very small fry in a 10g with a sponge filter. Tried the liquifry stuff, but it's really messy. The fry are a little bigger than they were and I'm thinking about trying some frozen baby brine shrimp. Will the adults in my larger tank also eat the frozen shrimp, or is it mainly for fry?

You may be able to hatch your own baby brine shrimp! It's lots of fun and your fish will love to eat it!! I have feed live baby brine shrimp to zebra danio's, platies, guppies, swordtails. And they all love it! So i'm sure frozen would be fine. But be sure to thaw out some of the cube before putting it in with the fish.

i just drop the frozen cube right in. let the fish tear it apart.

Why waste it. Just toss it in a stir fry and eat it up.

Frozen baby BS can be quite messy too. Try buying some small (almost dust) granular food, or take your regular flake and rub it between your fingers onto a sheet of paper and when you have lots then seal in a container. feed out of thls until they get up a little in size.
Of course if you are a little more adventurous then cultivate your own livefoods.
Microworm and Grindalworm for your fry.
