While not technically a shrimp, the brine shrimp is a crustacean found in salty lakes and ponds. And while they're rebranding as sea monkeys is a more recent innovation, Artemia have been around for over 100 million years. Artemia swim upside down and breathe through their gills near the base of their limbs, and they spend their days seeing out their favorite food, algae. But Artemia also make for great food themselves, which is why they are cultivated to feed fish being farmed for your own future meals or aquariums. That's actually how we got ours. James, our master of microscopes, ordered a packet of about a million eggs on the Internet and then concocted his own special briny mixture like a mixologist at a microscopic bar to give them the right conditions to emerge in.
