I just got some but haven't had any for a while and I forgot how I used to feed it. I was trying to give my cories some so I took a piece off a cube and stuck it to the side of the tank, but it only stuck for a bit and then it all floated away...now it's all floating on top of the water where I doubt they'll find it, since I've always fed them at the bottom... grrrr

So yeah is there any way to make it stick together? Or at least sink?...would it sink if I soak it first?

hmm... I don't know.. I have never used brine shrimp, but I have a beta, and don't they eat it? I'm curious if my beta would like that or not..... but I guess I'll just have to find out, He eats flakes, pellets, bloodworms, and anything else that floats at the top of the tank and fits in his mouth HA!

Yes I think your betta would like brine shrimp.

0morrokh freeze dried brine shrimp do tend to float. I use the Omega One freeze dried BS and it comes in cubes. I pinch off a piece, hold it under the water and when it's water logged it will fall but very slowly.

hey 0morrokh...i bought the big als brand freeze dried brine shrimp. i just break a piece off the cube and put it in the tank. it floats for like 5 seconds and then drops to the bottom.

That's the same kind I have...glad to hear it'll sink once waterlogged. I'll soak it or something next time.
