Teresa--I can't recall which bbs are smallest, but bbs from different 
locations (i.e. Argentina vs. San Francisco Bay vs. Salt Lake City)  may 
vary in the size.  If you search the forums, you may be able to find a brine 
shrimp which is smaller at hatch time.  I've heard other people at my fish 
club mention that their baby rams can't take baby brine shrimp when newborn. 
 In addition, bbs grow rapidly after hatching, so you might not wait too 
long after hatching to use them.
