Autofeed the eggs to the Fuge if you have one.

You guys are kidding right? A cowfish won't even be able to see newly hatched brine shrimp, let alone chase it down to eat it. I think the original poster was referring to frozen adult sized brine shrimp or mysis. Cows need meaty foods along with nori for fibre.

The only thing that comes to mind is to try some freeze dried blood worms. See if he'll accept it first before buying an autofeeder. You don't want to come home to 8 days of uneaten food laying at the bottom of the tank. Good luck!

i read a good trick but i'm not too sure how long it would work for but it may be something to consider. get a film canister or perhaps something larger and put a small hole in the top. drop the brine shrimp eggs in and put the whole thing in the tank. viola! when they hatch they swim outta the hole and the egg casing are left in the container!
