Seems like it could be a game changer, but it could just be hype….

I heard about these a couple of months ago and there's a lot of promise there.  I wonder how long the nauplii stay fairly nutritious/how far they get along without any supplemental feeding.  Not that it would necessarily be a problem - people just baby brine shrimp and hatch them every day for a reason - but having a more nutritious and smaller easy-entry source could be quite useful for someone wanting to get started.  Having them all start as eggs also makes the feed size much more uniform, so you wouldn't have to sieve your hatched batches.
