I have never cultured shrimp before but I am looking for something that would be easy to care for and can be grown fairly quickly. I want something that I can feed to my corals as well as my clowns.
I was looking at mysis shrimp but I don't know exactly what I would feed them. I have seen brine shrimp kits but they are small and from what I read they need to be fed algae to survive. I was hoping for something that I could just throw some flake food into but I don't know if that is possible with any of these small shrimp.
Mysis would be perfect but I can't seem to find a good write up. I have a 2 and 5 gallon aquarium and I don't want to build some elaborate professional grade hatchery for something I only need a few of. I only have a 29 gallon biocube so even if they don't grow quick it I could feed at least 1-2 times a week that would be fine.
