G'day folks!

I recently bought myself a jar of freshly hatched Baby Brine Shrimp (Artemia) and was wondering what I do with it lol. Do I just put it straight into a container and is it ready straight away for fish?

Cheers and hope you all have a great day!

You mean they were alive? i feed mine frozen, but have considered growing them from eggs. Available online everywhere.
They require heat and an air pump to do well, so if yours are alive, I’d be interested to know how long they last.
 
This brand do not come alive. You can feed them right out of the jar, it even comes with a tiny spoon. The jar will have to be refrigerated after opening and spoils after a week. I put mine in a sandwich baggie, and lay it flat in the freezer, so I can break chunks off of the frozen sheet to defrost and feed.
