Fintique isnt carrying live brine shrimp anymore cause where they use to get it from no longer carrys it. You could try Red Crest Pet Shop in Boerne.

I'd say all around Pet Store nothing fancy most if not all his saltwater tanks dont have sand but sorta like chunky coral not crush cant think of a whats it called. Also has like 3 to 6 giant white saint bernard like dogs lying around the store real cool looking.

The easiest way is to buy a kit on Ebay and get a small air pump some phyto for feed and that's it. But the kit will get you going.

bigdscobra, i have a hatchery kit ill give you. just come pick it up. all you need is a small pump which i can give you also, and a 2-litre bottle with the bottom cut off.

from ths, you can hatch in 2 ways:

you can buy the packets at texas tropicals for ~5$ and hatch em that way, or you can buy JUST the eggs, add your own saltwater, an grow em that way, under 5$ as well. the former method has salt mixed into the package already.

PM me if you want the hatch kit and ill set it aside.

I picked some up at Red Crest Pet Shop, but I'm going to have to setup a little hatchery.
