what fish can eat freeze dried brine shrimp as their regular diet?

right now i have three neon tetras, a pregnant female assorted guppy, and an algae eater. i currently use just normal freshwater fish food, and betta food. since my guppy is having babies, i need to get some brine shrimp, just wondering if the rest of my fish can eat it as their regular diet?

Feeding live brine shrimps (artemia) to my fish

Artemia is 3 weeks old. Fish are: black mollies (adults and babies), guppies, zebra danios, golden CAEs (chinese algae eaters) and silver shark.

I have two Ghost Catfish, one looks sick but acts healthy and the other looks healthy and acts sick, what I do?

They were in a 5 gallon tank with an algae eater, I left the one that was acting sick in the 5 gallon tank and moved the one that was acting healthy into a 10 gallon tank along with the algae eater. The sick acting one sometimes lays on the bottom of the tank barely moving but a while later will swim around like he is healthy. His scales and fins all look healthy with no signs of anything being wrong. The other fish, acts healthy and is always swimming, however he has lost his whiskers, and his fins look like he’s been in a fight. I feed them both freeze dried brine shrimp. Does anyone have a possible explanation or know of anything I could do for them.

How many bottom dwellers can I have?

I have a 40 gallon tank with 4 Corey’s and a Japanesse algae eater. I really love to watch their antics. How many Corey’s can I have ? I only have 10 other fish at the moment. I do add bloodworms and brine shrimp to their diet every 4 days.

Betta became a picky eater after trying brine shrimp?

My betta used to eat the round pellets without hesitation when I first brought him home. He got Ich and wouldn’t eat so I tried giving him freeze dried brine shrimp. He LOVED them. Now that’s all he’ll eat. He won’t even touch the round pellets anymore. Should I mix up his diet or are brine shrimp ok to feed everyday??
