Default Babies ..

Yes , Please keep us posted. Regarding brine shrimp they are very easy to hatch given a good quality source of eggs . Freshwater sites usually have several methods of making a simple hatchery.
I used to use the inverted pop bottle system with great sucess when raising angels.

yes do keep us posted and the bbs are very easy to hatch all you need is a light air pump and a pop bottel and eggs youu can get a hatchery kit at almost every fish store in edmonton id get it just for the base to hold the pop bottel but order the eggs on line as the ones that come with the kit i found not to be that great.

Default Brine shrimp..............

More on brine shrimp .It is economical to use the 1lb cans ( available on line ),I used to use Angels Plus who were good to deal with. Store the can in the fridge when not in use and they will last for a long time .If you have a couple of bottles going that will ensure a continuous supply of new born shrimp..................good luck

Depending on where you got them, they are more than likely h. Kudas not reidi. Post some close up pics and I can confirm for you. I know all the LFS in Calgary that have sold seahorses in the last year the plain black ones where all Kudas.

As for brine shrimp, if they are kudas or reidi, the babys wont accept them for a couple of weeks as they are too large. The rotifer cultures and smaller copepods are what you need to ween them for the first bit.
