Safer to quarantine them first OR breed them by yourself. Pretty easy to say, I bred them before in the past for my cichlids.

They are sold as feeders here at ten for a dollar.I feed them to smaller fish from time to time.

Will do thanks man. I just got a 40 gallon breeder as a fry tank. That makes 5 tanks in my living room lol. Wonder if ghost shrimp would eat my fry??

I haven't tried the ghost shrimps with fry yet but judging from how they can eat most snails, I'd say there's a chance they will attack the fry.
