My baby Red Eared Slider won’t eat!?

I got him last week. I feed him food sticks for carnivorous fishes. I also tried flakes dried brine shrimps from my betta food. I don’t think he will eat turtle food either because I saw it and it looks exactly like the food sticks I feed him. All he does is hide under the bridge thing. I keep him at room temperature.
I sometimes have a lamp on him when I think it is too cold but it doesn’t make a difference because he hides from it anyway. And I really don’t prefer to buy live food.

Brine shrimp egg storage?

Can I store my brine shrimp eggs at room temperature in an empty fish food plastic sealed top container?

Can shrimp be ruined if they are allowed to brine for too long?

I am going to brine some shrimp later and suggestions i have seen say to brine for 30 minutes at room temperature. Problem is, I want to prepare them and put them in some tupperware for transport to a friend’s bbq. If I leave them in the brine after i clean them and just stick the containers in the fridge after 30 minutes at room temp, will sitting in there too long break down the shrimp meat?

Brine Shrimp Eggs!?!?!?

how long will it take for brine shrimp eggs to hatch at room temperature?

How the data will be used to answer questions about the salt requirements of brine shrimp?

The conentration in water affects the hatching of brine shrimp eggs.A scientist wants to determine the best conditions in which to hatch the shrimp eggs. In a laboratory, brine shrimp will grow at room temperature in small glass containers of salt water.

Describe the steps of a controlled experiment that would determine the best saltwater concentration in which to hatch brine shrimp eggs.In your response,be sure to indicate:

-The materials that will be used
-The type of data that will be collected
-How the data will be used to answer questions about the salt requirements of brine shrimp.
