Decapsulated (Non-Hatching)Brine Shrimp vs hatching

[jsullins]

Im getting ready to try and raise some fry from a couplle of pairs I have and was wondering what is better the Decapsulated (Non-Hatching)Brine Shrimp or hatching them and feeding live? I have read here that the fry dont care much for the Decapsulated, if I start out with that from day one would it bee a problem? Seems like it would be easier if it works but if a majority thinks live is better I guess I will learn to hatch and feed.

this is what I was looking at

one last question is there really a difference between premium, grade a and economy other than less money in my pocket?

I think the fry will care Non-Hatching Decapsulated and newly hatch specially the early age, like day 1. Don't think they will eat Non-Hatching Decapsulated on day 1 ...
If you're lazy about hatching BS, try FORREST AQUAbites, I see someone here use that on here ...
