What about raising brine shrimp?
I know they arent all that nutritious but cant you fatten them up with selcon and reef roids and that kind of stuff?

The guy on nano-reef is selling them for 50 for $20 and then cheaper for larger numbers. Group buy?

If you have pods now. And your fuge is fish free your population will increase with time. Be patient.

I just brought an order in, but they are all spoken for. I can do another order for Edmonton and area if there is interest for any of the following:

Live Mysis;
Live Amphipods;
Live Rotifers;
Live Shrimp

PM if interested.

Here's a place I have used a few times with great results
they have several different things available.
http://www.reed-mariculture.com/
costs around 65.00 bucks for overnight shipping..but decent prices for larger numbers.

All interesting. Would prefer to go as local as possible due to die off (it's winter!). If anyone wants to do a group buy through The Reefe Shoppe or somewhere in Alberta I'm in.

are u sure u want mysis shrimp?
they are fairly difficult to breed..hence why they cost so much.
are u thinking about amphipods? which is what most tanks will have naturally over time.
