for me it will be hard to have live brine shrimp but will frozen ones do and be just as nutritious and healthy for my MARINE fish
will angelfish eat them

I have a male betta for about 8 months now. Last weekend, my sister left the windows open and the temperature in the tank got down to about 65 degrees. He’s warmed back up now, but now he’s spitting out all ( or at least most ) of his food. I htought that maybe he was still too cold, so have bought a tank w/ a heater and he is in there. The transfer went ok and he seems to be enjoying the new habitat, but something is still obviously amiss as he still is spitting everything out. He was originally eating pellets, but I’ve tried both live brine shrimp and frozen brine shrimp with the same results. It is possible that he did swallow one or two brine shrimp, but this is a far cry from his previous appetite. Does anyone have any idea what his problem could be? His coloration is fine, and his entire demeanor seems unchanged, other than his appetite is gone. Its been over a week like this and I am very concerned. Please help.

my lionfish doesn`t seem to accept any food that`s not alive.

my fry dont seem to be too interested in these 2 types of food. when they are fed live microworms or vinegar eels they just attack them the same thing when i was feeding live brine shrimp. i dont know maybe they eat it later on when it falls to the bottom but im not sure so i continue to add microworms. i see the fry grab the frozen brine shrimp then spit it out. any suggestions
