Mysid shrimp, also known as opossum shrimp, make an excellent diet for live-food eating aquatic animals like seadragons, seahorses and pipefish. There are many fish that may normally be difficult to feed, but will accept these succulent little crustaceans with gusto! They are also a nutritious food, relatively high in protein and fats. To maintain long term, keep in a small aquarium or 5-gallon bucket by themselves with an air-driven sponge filter. Mysid shrimp should be fed liquid Phytoplankton or Brine Shrimp Food when maintaining these animals for more than a few days. For short term storage, keeping them in the unopened bag (there is enough pure oxygen sealed in the bag for 3 days) and placing the bag in a 40ºF refrigerator works well. At this temperature they will slow down their metabolism and require very little oxygen. Start a population in your system today!
