Sailboat Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Does anyone have any new hatched brine shrimp I could buy. Really need some for my cardinal fish fry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Most of our Local Fish Stores (LFS) carry them by the register. The kits are also available to buy and they hatch very quickly. Keep in mind that there isn't any nutritional value in brine unless you gut-load them with something like Selcon. It's like feeding them popcorn, fun to eat, not healthy. Often used to train fish that only eat live food to also eat frozen or flake. I've never had an issue getting cardinal fish to eat non-live fish.

lenver Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I know this won't help you right now but in the future you can buy de capsular brine shrimp eggs Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mFrame Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Just caught the part where you said they were for fry. I bought an inexpensive bribe hatchery a few years ago at the Aqua Dome. Love to hear how th we fry work out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nwehrman Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 I have lots decapsulated brine shrimp eggs - but I'm in San Marcos and not very convenient to most. Hatch in 18 hours give or take depending on temperature. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
