Hi all, I bought some brine shrimp eggs and a hatchery 3 days ago, and have been feeding the baby brine to my tank every day since, but I’m literally getting zero feeding response from my fish. Is there any benefit to adding them to the tank (a la copepods), or should I just give up?

I think they’re just too small for the fish to even register that they’re food.

I have the following fish:

Indigo Dottyback
2x Ocellaris Clownfish
Blue Neon Goby
Six Line Wrasse
Orange Spotted Bristletooth Tang
Randall’s Goby
2x White Spotted Trimma Goby
Blue Hippo Tang
Copperband Butterfly

Thanks!
 
they literally eat anything’ but in the past when I was raising fish I’ve used:
baby food in the form of peas, sweet potatoes and carrots
brewers yeast
algae scraper scrapings
phyto
Dans feed
algae max
phyto paste
spirulna powder
btw it will never be a waste, I’m 100% sure something in a reef tank will utilize them...trust that

No kidding? You think maybe the corals will eat them? I just don’t want to unnecessary pollute the tank.

PS: Those are the same 3 baby foods my wife and I are feeding our infant haha
