Hey everyone, I was just wondering how you guys and gals feed your fish live brine shrimp? Do you rinse them off in freshwater of just net them and put directly into the tank? My fish are too big to eat brine shrimp, but I remember back in the day feeding my guppies brine shrimp just to see the guppies get pulled around. The Doctor.
 
I suck em up in a dropper.. Drop them into the b rine net.. Then either drops form the sink... Or drop from a cup and shoot that through the shrimp in the net.. Then suck em back up int the dropper and feed.. But I am new to this type of feedeing.. And this way works extremely well for em so.. Any way ;)
 
Adult live brine shrimp are a waste of food though--not nutritious at all--98% water.

Not true at all.

As for me, I just rinse them with some temperate tap water and then feed or freeze. Same process for newly hatched and adults.
