I have some OSI.....can give you some, they are good, I am hatching them. The best brand I have used so far is Azoo Artemia Cysts. Sera is no good!

thanks guys I want to try and breed these at home can this be done

[Romi]

Yes, this can be done.

Do you realise you will be basically keeping them in salt water? Everytime you will need to make fresh salt water for them, during water changes.

If you like keeping interesting shrimp like brine shrimp and not like cherry red shrimp, why not try fairy shrimp? They look different and are a freshwater sp.

as mentioned by Romi fairy shrimps would be much easier to keep and maintain as they unlike brine shrimp don't require salt water. Few days Back Amol collected them from wild and probably breeding them too.
