How do i keep live brine shrimps and make it into a constant supply for my betta fish?

Just bought a bag of brine shrimps and my betta loves it!
Wondering if i can keep this brine shrimps to live longer and make it into a constant supply for my betta fish.

i went to the fish store yesterday and saw that they had the puffer i wanted?

ok i went to my fish store to buy a blennie and noticed there was the puffer i wanted it looked ALMOST exactly alike the one i wanted and bought it and my blennie and a small gobie (darnit haha should had bought that 1:00 bag of live brine shrimp) anyway and i went home got online and looked to make sure it was the right puffer but it wasnt but i already had bonded with it anyway and i was wondering the original puffer i wanted was a honeycomb puffer and i wanted to kno can i get that without them fighting… i mean a territoreal chase every now and again is fine i mean no killing anyway can i here are the fish i haveits a 55 gallon tank

How long do brine shrimp live? How do I feed them to Fish?

My LFS sells them by the bag (about 2 cups of water if that gives you an idea of the size of bag) for a buck

And I was wanting to feed some to my white clouds to see if I could get them to lay eggs….

So I was just wondering how long a bag of brine shrimp would live before a major die off?

Also – do you just suck some up with a turkey baster and plop them in the tank? Or do you strain them out of the water (seems to me you wouldn’t want any outside water in a tank, but what do I know)

You guys use any other methods?

Thanks a bunch y’all
I hadn’t thought about it, but could you feed the shrimp to help them live longer….

I will be feeding these TO fish…as dinner
Thanks for the suggestion of frozen foods – personally brine shrimp give me the heebie jeebies….SEA BUGS!!!
