    Live Brine Shrimp?

    They are not capable of eating for about 24 hours after they hatch. I'm guessing they would live for several days before they would actually die. But it's true that they are most nutritious right after they hatch... after the first 24 hours they are really only a package that holds whatever...

    Live Brine Shrimp?

    Hatch usually takes 24 hours - maybe a bit more. Turn off the air and let it all settle a few minutes, if you see alot of swimmers they are ready. I'm sure you didn't decap.. so you should have alot of debris floating and sinking.. if you dip in a net you will catch a bunch of debris. If...

    live food

    Anything in particular you are looking for? FW ghost shrimp can usually be found at Walmart, Aquarium Paradise in Tacoma or sometimes Petsmart. Most LFS have feeder fish of some sort. An amazing array of live foods can be bought online. Vicky
