Re: live food another ramble (none / 0) (#12)

yes, i've tried brine shrimp cultures before, but the eggs i bought were invalid and out of date. i just recently bought a "sea monkey" kit. they seem like alot of fun, and breed by themsleves. they grow to be a bit bigger than regular brines, so i figure i'll use the eggs in the starter pack to grow adults. after 3-4 weeks, i'll have some babies from them. then, i take a few babies a day from the little sea monkey container (it holds about 10 oz of water)and feed them to my betta, and any fry i have around. excess adults could probably be eaten by the 2 inch betta too, but the adults are anywhere from 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch!

anyway, i just hope this starts a successful culture. i just added the egg packet today (saving about 25% of the eggs in case something goes wrong before they can reproduce). there is an instruction packet, as well as a company website (sea-monkeys.com) with a faq section, so maybe these things might actually live.
