Live Artemia, or how your calls, brine shrimp are of course much better than frozen. However, they are not to keep in normal salt water. They need a much higher salinity and a very high density of feed (Phytoplankton). The water must be dark green from plankton. You cannot realise this in a fuge because of the high percentage of nitrate.
