Hi everyone,
I got a Scooter Blenny for a few months now, since October to be exact, in my 20gal waterbox.
She is doing amazing, always hunting for food but eats also very well frozen artemia. She always even swims to the top by the spot I drop the artemia in.
I also have tried to feed her pallets, flakes and other frozen food like mysis. I see that she doesn't go after that as she does after the artemia.
Currently I'm preparing for our small citytrip in May for 5 days. I'll get an autofeeder for my clowns, but I'm concerned about the blenny.
As she doesn't eat the pellets that the autofeeder dispenses, I thought maybe I can try some dried artemia instead.
As I live in Belgium, I have to look whats available here and only see dried artemia pellets for fresh water fish.
Do you guys think this will be okay to give it to the salt water fish aswel?

Yes, dried brine shrimp is still dried brine even if its marketed for freshwater. I would check the ingredients to make sure it's pure Brine shrimp though.

Can't you just drop in copepods in your tank and let the dragonette do its natural thing?
I think a full bottle of it won't impact your 20gal in any way chemistry wise, and will probably stay stalked for your trip, unless you got a very fat psycho wrasse in that tank as well.
