You're welcome

Dwarfs are going to cause all kinds of problems, imo. You're going to have 2 or 3 or 4 brine shrimp hatcheries going at one time to feed them properly. The brine eggs also have to go through a decapsulation process before being put in the first stage of the hatchery process.

I initially considered dwarfs, but after understanding the full extent of the undertaking of culturing baby brine shrimp then enriching them, I knew I wasn't up to the task. I cultured live food for our finches a number of years ago, and it was a definite PITA. Culturing bbs for dwarfs is infinitely more tedious and time consuming.

But if a person has the patience, time and a huge amount of desire, dwarfs would certainly do well in a 10 gal.
