Live Brine Shrimp
« on: February 23, 2012, 16:36:59 »
Does anyone know where I can get adult live brine shrimp tonight? Gerber’s usually has it but they don't today. I have not been able to keep up with their appetite and worried they are going to starve.

Aquatics Specialists used to raise them back when Justin had it...not sure if they still do though, but it might be worth a call.

Dont think they get them any more at gerbers, they were always a money loosing product. cost something like $100 for a batch after shipping and made back like $25 of that.

I thought Walmart/jacks sold dry brine eggs at one point in time. That'll be your best option it looks like or you'll have to order online. Think they will eat cyclop-eeze? I have a lot I could bring to the meeting tomorrow till you can buy some brine.

I have eggs and hatch them daily. I need adults for the older shrimp because the BBS is to small for them. My adult culture crashed because I forgot to turn air back on after a harvest and that is why I am in desperate need for some right now. It takes 3-4 weeks to raise them to a decent size.

I work in downtown Cincinnati, so if you can find a place down there that sells them, I can pick them up and drop them off up there.
