Frozen Enhanced Brine Shrimp

Many frozen food manufacturers offer enhanced brine shrimo. v20 says theirs is enhanced with photo, SFB offers a spirulina and omega enhanced, Reef Nutrition even offers a gut loaded product in their refrigerated line. Any thoughts on the best for ponies?

Personally I stick to Hikari frozen mysis augmented with live adult brine shrimp enriched with Dan's Feed. (at least once a week for live)
I don't like most enriched frozen foods as most of the enrichment ends up in the water, boosting chances of nasty bacteria growth.

Ditto on the mysid.

Then I stock my tank with tisbes, amphipods, grass shrimp, and occasionally mysid or enriched baby brine. This gives them variety in nutrition and something to hunt all day.
