Feeding live Brine Shrimp?

Posted on September 11, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

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 tank question?

Posted on September 1, 2011 by admin| 5 Comments

i have a 10 gal. rectangular freshwater aquarium

heres what i have in it

1 mollie
1 platy
2 black scurted tetras
1 algae eater
and 1 shrimp

now my tank seems to have a lot of room in it, most of the time when i walk in my room, i only see one or two fish…..everyone seems healthy

my question is, is it ok if i add a couple more buddies in there? maybe tetras or platys or mollies, or maybe a gourami?
when i get my algae eater at petsmart, it said on the tank “algae eater” hes about 2-3 inches long and the guy said he isnt getting any bigger
