Brine shrimp are also known as sea monkeys. Most pet shops carry brine shrimp eggs, hatcheries and sometimes bags of brine shrimp.
You can also feed the fry crushed flake, boiled egg yoke, or liquid food especially for fry. I stick with flake myself. feed little and often up to 4 times a day for a fast growth rate.
Bare in mind the quicker they grow the shorter the lifespan.

Next time, fill the top 2-3 inches of the tank with hair grass. Females well instinctively head into it when they give off, and the fry will be safe because adult fish can’t swim through it. (You’ll have to use a feeding ring of some sort to feed the tank – food won’t get through the hair grass either.)
