pepperskunk shrimp

I seriously doubt that they will reach maturity though..it's really hard to rear the tiny larvaes.

They are so fragile and easily killed that I find it a sheer miracle that they survive in the open ocean!

Save yourself the expense, hassle, stress, and frustration and call them free fish food.

well, if someone is willing to try it and have the spare time? why not?

When I learned how hard it was I did not want to get into hatching brine etc...because I was working but have I had the time I would have tried it. One must be ready when they hatch though and I was not ready and I did not have any container ready for them and no food.

I suppose, but if my kids wanted to know how to parachute off the roof of the house I guess I could advise them how to, But I would just rather advise them not to ....Sometimes you just need to steer people away from ideas that in the end will likely only frustrate them.

YOu are comparing something that is time consuming but relatively safe to do, with something that is just plain dangerous to do.

Common sense would dictate to forget the parachute, but heck..he's not going to die from trying to raise a few shrimps. It might even be a fascinating experience. I wish I could have done it no matter the outcome.

One could consider this a challenge. People pay tons of money to get nearly killed and suffer a great deal just to reach the Everet summit

Wow, once again you are absolutely 100% correct.... Excuse me while I go amputate my fingers...as to not respond to any further. Any advise on howto culture my fingers into a full body? I would hate to not give it a try...
