Baby brine shrip eggs.

I meant where do u get baby brine shrip eggs

Answer 1

Just feed them normal food U give them, but make sure U cut them into tiny little pieces so the babies can catch easily, & chew easily. Drop the food from top near the babies & watch the babies swim & catch their preys. 2 things all tropical babies can do after birth: swimming & eating. Remember to sink the food down, so this "moving" food can make the babies pay some attention. U better feed them thin longish ones 1st. 'Coz babies can't swallow those ball looking stuff. They'd like to hold on to their food & chew it. Don't feed them too much, it's the best if U separate the new-borns from the grown-ups. & try to let every baby catch some food. Clean the jar (It's better if U put them in a jar) after dinner.

Baby Betta Food

Answer 3

If you already have fry are pretty well screwed at this point. What you need are live micro worms early on. As baby betta generally will not eat anything that isn't really small and moving. They are a number of places on the net that sell micro worm cultures. You can find brine shrimp in many pet stores, but generally they are used for the next stage. Feeding them finely ground flakes generally just fouls the water.

baby brine shrimps... what you do is go to any fish store and buy brine shrimp eggs. All you do is add the eggs to water with an air stone attach to an air pump. Leave it running over night for the shrimps to hatch and the next more, take the baby brine shrimps that are swimming around and feed it to your betta. Baby brine shrimps are very nutritious however loses all the nutrition as they get older.

Answer 5

It will be best to feed them with infurosia, the moment they are free swimming, You can make them by mixing in 1/2 a teaspoon of milk powder into about 10L of dechlorinated water. Provide with some aeration. Once the water clears up, this means that you have infurosia thriving in the body of water.

If you fail, fret not. You may use normal flake or pellet and grind them till they are very fine like powder. Sprinkle them over the water. They will be fine. I did it this way too at times.

Once they are like 2 to 3 days older. It will be best to provide them with baby brine shrimps. The best will be those that are just 3 hrs old from hatching - very nutritious because they are still swimming around with their egg sacs.

Continue to do this with baby brine shrimps till they are like bigger (app 1 wk). You may want to add water fleas into their diet.

Alternate between the 2 - water fleas/ baby brine shrimps.

Don't forget not to overfeed them and carry out water change only when the fries are older (2 to 3 wks). Frequent water change after the fries are older is important as they will give out hormones to stunt the growth of the weaker fries - not good if you want to keep all of them.

Answer 6

My daughter has a beta and she feeds it TetraMin which is Tropical fish food Sometimes if she was not here to feed it I fed it and it really went after the food the minute it was put in the bowl. I have no idea where you get baby brine shrimp. But try the TetraMin it is for Beta's Good Luck lol

Answer 7

I would say feed them baby brine shrimp or brine shrimp eggs, but there is also something that grows in the water called inflourisa that they can eat if there were up to 2 or 3 weeks old or younger that you can not see.

Answer 8

I'd only feed 3 pellets or 2 bloodworms a day. I usually don't use flakes because they're generally not Betta specific and they're hard to measure properly. I wouldn't use freeze dried food because it can cause constipation, frozen or live ones are fine though.

Answer 10

You can buy beta food at the pet store, but while they are babys feed them brine shrimp eggs. Make sure that if you have more than one, you keep them in separate bowls, because as soon as they are into the "teenage" stage, they will fight and kill each other.
