The mysis is in a frozen state. The mysis can be kept alive in fresh water in a fridge with live phyto plankton for over a month. But then theres the fact that it is illegal to ship it live because if it gets into another lake it will take the lake over and depleat it of its phyto plankton and then all your local baby fish will die from lack of food. I cant belive some of you dont know what Mysis is??? Ill let you in on a little secret... It is probably the best single fish feed in the world!!!!! Nutritional profile blows most everything away!!! Its like taking the nutrition of 100 brine shrimp and stuffing all that nutrition into one shrimp and then adding half a bottle of selcon. For those of you who dont know, us feeding our fish brine shrimp is the equivlent of us eating horse diahrea, sure theres some nutrition there, but comon!!! Its Crap!!! For info on the product check out this website. www.canadianlakeplankton.com I do consulting for these guys and right now part of my pay is Mysis Shrimp and Im making it available to you guys for a really great deal. Ill say the same thing any other feed manufacture will tell you but Im not lieing, it will make your fish healthier, bigger, stronger, more colourful, boost imune system, and make you rich and prosperous. Well mabey I might lie abit too....
P.S. I will have freze dried soon...
