brine shrimp sex?

when i was feeding my fishies brine shrimp, two of them were stuck together, were they having sex?
that is sad, cuz i ruined their moment and my fish ate them.

and do brine shrimp males have testicles, cuz i see that some of them have a dot right there.
im not a guy, and im top contributor becaue i “specialize” in bettas only, i am no fish expert and never had a very large aquarium. i know its a stupid question, gosh give me a break, i was just curious.

  2. lmao. I suppose if you’re gonna go, that’s a good way to go. That “dot” you see where you figure the testicles should be is probably the females egg sack.

  3. If you fed your fishes grown adult brine shrimp, and if they were clinging onto each other, it sounds like sex.

    But freshly hatched brine shrimp, are not mature enough to have sex.
