I know this question has been brought up time and time again for you guyz, although Im in Australia, NSW and I cant seem to find anyone that sells brine shrimp live...??

I can buy it frozen, but can I feed the fry this??

PLZ help... Is there substitute food that I could feed them. My local aquarium advises to boil an egg, remove the yoke, and dry it out with a tissue, then form a powder and feed them that...??

Is this ok..

PLZ HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP

for fry you should buy BBS eggs & hatch them yourself. Frozen BBs are OK occasionally,
you can also powder up flake food etc for them

Hi Popse,

Best food for fry is freshly hatched brineshrimp. If your LPS hasn't got any eggs for you to buy, try out primo aquaculture 1800 024 850, they are in NSW as well and have a door to door delivery service. The eggs are very easy to hatch out yourself and will give your fry a great start.

So once I order some eggs, how long do they take to hatch...??

And when do I start to feed them that???

Is there a thread that shows how to hatch them??

Any help would be appreciated...
