Feeding live Brine Shrimp?

I’m currently cycling an Eclipse 5 gallon corner fish tank (freshwater) housing a single juvenile Zebra Danio and an African Dwarf Frog. My equipment includes a bio-wheel filter, hood lamp, air stone, large gravel substrate and a 25-watt Top Fin heater that is currently set at low and produces a consistent water temp. of 77.5 degrees. (sorry if this was all useless info!)

Basically, I’m looking to diversify/enhance said Danio’s & ADF’s current diet of flake food and frozen blood worms. Preferably, I’d like to find a local pet store (Seattle area) that sells ready-to-feed live brine shrimp. Setting up a mini-hatchery in my tiny ass apartment seems like a hassle (let me know of any possible mis-conceptions I may have about this!), although if no better options present themselves, I’ll make it work.

Can anyone share their experience feeding live Brine Shrimp? How often/how much should I feed? How do I make sure the ADF gets his fair share of live Brine Shrimp?

Regards!
I’m sticking with a single Zebra Danio just until the tank has finished cycling.

Fish feeding help!?

I have a 10 gallon and an 8 gallon freshwater tank, two separate tanks. They are 6 non aggressive fish in the 10 gallon. I got brine shrimp for the 1st time and wanted to feeding them the frozen brine shrimp. I fed them a tablet of the brine shrimp today. How often should I feed them the frozen brine shrimp. Normally i feed them tropical flakes.

PS: The 8 gallon i got today…i got it because i wanted a planted tank and they don’t make the proper lighting for 10 gallon tanks. At the moment… the 8 gallon is cycling and has a CO2 system, power sand and substrate, and a nice built in filter with awesome lighting!

Thanks!

Gymnothorax Tile (Freshwater brackish snowflake moray eel etc) eating rosy red. Yesterday he broke his two month hunger strike. His diet will soon move on to convicts, smelt and raw shrimp. Yum!
