feeder shrimp

i am always looking for ways not to overfeed my small 12.5 aquarium. so in checking out options of fish for my up and coming 125 gal, I came across these:

http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/p...91&pcatid=2191

My question, in the meantime while I wait for my big tank to arrive, cycle and be ready, maybe in a month or 3. could I get these boogers, put them in my up and running QT catch a few at a time and toss them into my display tank to feed my O clown and wheeler watchman gobie??

pack is 85-100 of the tiny ones. would those fish eat them or are the shrimp too big?? there is also a marble star in there, I know tank is too small, was already here before I inquired on this site.

Again, should have asked you guys. Liveaquaria said it should be OK. too late now. no one to give it 2.

Re: feeder shrimp

I don't see why not but once you get fish in the qt they are likely to eat them. I do feed them to my fish occasionally as a treat but I don't want any of them to rely on live food so I only give it to them rarely.
It looks like they are out of stock right now.
