I'm approaching the dreaded 48 hour mark, where I typically lose most of my larvae. I believe there is a molt that happens at this time, and mine just never make it through that. There's so much that can go wrong. I do 2 water changes per day of 1/3 volume, and it has to be temperature and salinity matched to avoid shock. Contamination from equipment is always a possibility, as is simple mechanical damage from accidentally sucking them up when I siphon out the dead baby brine shrimp.
As for where I buy my shrimp--anywhere in town that has them reasonably priced. I'm not vendor-monogamous.
