It is for what I was told very much like raising clownfish fru. But they consume more rotifers than the clownfish fry.

I was given both info Baby Brine shrimp and this:
"Raising them is difficult, rotifers are a good first food. A small tank with very light circulation from an airline is best, I raised them for awhile in a 1 gallon bucket with an airline bubbling 1-2 bubbles per second, water tinted green with plenty of L rotifers. They can eat a surprising amount of rotifers for their small size. "

Thank you Tektite since I am not a pro at raising them I new that any advise from you has always been the best.
Interesting, looking back over some of my old posts I managed 15 days on frozen BBS. If I remember correctly they where well on their way to dry food by that time.

I had some peppermint shrimp in my 75 gallon tank breed but I never collected the fry. I had read that to breed them you need to separate them into containers because they will become cannibals. I had a difficult enough time keeping clownfish fry yields high without having to worry about them eating each other.
