Brine shrimps

Post by Ti_CLaD »

I had a brine shrimp hatcher since a few years, back when I had a pet crayfish, so I used to feed it that way, I have found some eggs again at my LFS so decided to buy them and try it with the figure8...

I haven't started yet but anybody tried this???

Are they hard to get to mature size in the case the puffer wouldn't see them has babies??

Mature BS have little to no nutrition, unless gut-loaded. Newly hatched BS are very nutritious, because they have their egg sac still attached. Too small for F8s though.
