As I usually have some fry I have BBS all the time and when feeding I feed it to every tank. Fish large and small love it, so I would say never stop if you have the patients, but it should not be 100% of the diet of larger fish.

To my knowledge I do not have any fish that does not eat BBS, even some shrimp eat it!!!

Hello again John,

For what it's worth I continue with Brine Shrimps even after the fish are large enough to manage larger, more static foods. The 'hunting down' the young fish have to do sort of 'keeps them on their toes' (fins?) better IMO.

I actually feed them to all my Apistos, Killies and Angels (even the adults) too.

As John an Daraght said you can feed it nearly as long as you want, but if you want to pass on something else(like more convenient fry granules), depends more on species then on size IMO. LIvebearers for example u can stop it even after a few days( u can rear them even whithout but with some(or more) looses. Angels for example are much harder to switch unless u have a diferent live food for them, and so on...
