Seasoned aquarist i bought a pipefish knowing the difficulty in keeping them the lfs that brought it in had no idea how to care for it so out of pitty and just wanting to try and save it plus always wanting one took it on now the question is how to keep the thing alive bought a target squirt feeder and ocean nutrition live baby brine on the way in the next few days in the meantime im mashing up a mysis brine combo with phyoplankton and kent microvert.....think this will work out as a food source in the meantime?

If your lfs has brine eggs they are easily hatched yourself. Saltwater a light aimed indirectly at the container. And they should hatch in 24-48 hours.
