How long will they survive in salt water.

I've had them last about 6 hours. I drip acclimated them hoping they'd live long enough to get eaten. Are you using them for feeders? You can always set up a FW tank for them. That's what I did.

Does it eat prepared food? Sometimes live food is a pain.

at least a few hours without any acclimation (i put 6 in my tank at 6.5 hours ago with no acclimation and the one that didn't get eaten is still alive)
