Okay I checked at the 2 lfs I know, and I don't think they have any daphnia, just brine shrimp, which got me upset.
So would the babies accept non-moving food, like crushed betta pellets? Or is there anything else to feed them. I'd breed brine shrimp if I could, but I don't even have food for them.
You can find frozen baby brine shrimp by Hikari. The babies should be able to eat that. You could try crushing the pellets as well or buy some powdered first bite food for the babies. It's pretty easy to hatch brine shrimp if you just buy those packets.
Oh, sweet. They better have them or I'll be pissed off, or go find some other better lfs. Thanks for the info again, I hope to get the female as soon as my mom lets me.
