So... I'm thinking I might wanna learn about mysis farming... like is it possible on a hobbiest level? If so I'd love some input folks..
 
Maybe if you want to devote your life to it. The problem is they are very cannibalistic. You need to constantly separate them by age / size. You need many different tanks with screens so the small ones can fit through ect ect.

I didn't reread this but this looks like it may be the article I read when I considered doing this. When I used to raise cuttlefish I thought about it, but in the end it was worth spending $100 on shipping every 2 weeks for a fresh batch as keeping them alive longer then 2 weeks was not practical for me. Keeping adults alive you need to keep the density pretty low. I used to hatch baby brine shrimp for the mysids to feed to the cuttlefish...
