Default Live food in Vancouver

I bought a Fuzzy Dwarf Lionfish for my reef and it won't eat at all. I have had it in the tank since Friday and it wont touch any krill from a feeder stick or when the food is being pushed around the tank with my power heads. I understand there is saltwater feeder shrimp on the market but I cannot find it at a few of the fish shops I have tried.

Does anybody know where I can get live food from in the Vancouver area?

I think the shrimp are called ghost Shrimp. if this helps. I am at a lost finding even live larger brine shrimp. the place in Maple ridge used to sell them by they have gone out of business. I might have to resort to petcetera feeder goldfish but they might even be too large for the 3 inch fuzzy. I am at a loss.

If goldfish are too big.. why not try guppies? Or small Mollys, which will live in saltwater.
