Are Sea-Monkeys a good pet and food source?

I was thinking about getting some. Then i realized they are actually a variation of brine shrimp. If so, then could my fish eat them and be fine?
Also I was wondering if it would be ok to stick them in a 2.5 gallon tank with gravel on the bottom and a plastic plant. Please don’t call me a bad person for feeding them to fish, because I plan on keeping half in the normal container as pets and the others as a breeding population for fish to ingest.

Bright red sea-monkeys?

I had just gotten LIVE sea monkeys from a pet store and although not hatched from eggs, i’m pretty sure they’re either sea monkeys or brine shrimp. Anyway..
1. Will they survive on small food items like guppy food?

2. I read that they do not require any cleaning of the tank since its an ecosystem type of thing, but won’t their feces produce the toxic ammonia?

And can anyone verify this particular species of sea monkey?

Brine Shrimp (Sea Monkeys) do they live in salt water of spring water.

I bought brine shrimp in the pet store. They were sold as feeders. How much salt do I put in a gallon of water??
I have not bought the sea monkey set… I bought only the sea monkey so how do you take care of it.
Not using it as feeders!!!

where can u get sea monkeys?

i want one as pet where can i find them in nj.
