My brine shrimp just hatched! I was just wondering how I go about feeding them to my fish. I am planing on doing a little at a time and making them come out from the airline tubing is this acceptable? I am going to put them in the tank and turn all filters off for my fish. Then once they look satisfied I will turn pumps back on. Am I taking the right approach? They just hatched should I wait till they get bigger?

Sounds great. They will start to die after a few hours.

I think it has to do with your setup. I hatched some 8 days ago in my 2l bottle and have been giving them phyto. They seem to be getting bigger. If you have just the little box with the camera film container on top with no aeration I think they will probably die in the fresh water.
 
I just fed about half a cup to my fish AND THEY WENT CRAZY! They were moving the mouths like crazy, a good treat for them I figure Im gonna try to supplement 2 a week.
