Yup! There is a major nutritional difference between young and fully developed brine shrimp: the protein/lipid (fat) ratio. The young ones contain definitely more lipids (highly caloric diet with lots of vitamins A,D,E,K). The adult forms are protein rich.
This feeding device is nice, however, you still need to provide it with dried eggs, and this should be done every 24h! _________ 75gal. Rio240 JEWEL aquarium
