You might try getting some decapsulated brine shrimp cysts. I ordered some from www.brineshrimpdirect.com. They may even have overnight shipping and I know they have 2nd day shipping. They may not be the best or the cheapest but that is what I used. This is a dry powder that is high in fat and nutrition.
