I heard someone mention a site called brine shrimp direct before with positive comments, you might try checking that out. But if you're UK, I don't know...

Hi, you can get Brine Shrimp eggs by mail order from Aquatics Online here. I haven't bought brine shrimp stuff off them, but I've used them a lots for other stuff and they're great! They also do the shell-less ones so you don;t have to worry about getting the shells in with the BBS and possibly choking your fry/fish!

I just used BrineShrimpDirect.com and am very happy. the price is unreal. To buy brine shrimp eggs from anywhere in my area was going to be $50 (Canadian) for up to 3.5 ounces (~100g) of brine shrimp eggs ($14.28/ounce). From Brine Shrimp Direct it cost me the same to get 16 ounces of premium brine shrimp eggs ($3.13/ounce). Well worth it in my mind!

Sorry to hyjack this thread, (if I do).

but been trying to raise Sea Monkeys with no sucsess, are the brine shrimp easyer??

with the stuff on the UK site.

sea monkeys are brine shrimp.

I tried to raise some sea monkeys in a little sea monkey kingdom but they soon turned into sea corpses.

Having since raised brine shrimp im not surprised my sea monkeys all snuffed it. The istructions on the brine shrimp specified that the water had to be at marine salt levels (not likely with the little sachet you get to put in your sea monkeys water) and also the tank had to be heated to around 30'c. sea monkeys have no heating, and room temperature certainly wont get them warm enough... . The brine shrimp instructions also specified that the water should be strongly aireated, also not likely with the little air squeezer you get in your sea monkeys set...
