I have also read that they can be fed by giving them a tiny pinch of yeast daily. Haven't tried it personally, bit it sounds like a good idea.

The major problem with yeast it can foul the water really quickly, so regular water changes are a must if feeding yeast. also use brewers yeast ,as it works better than bakers yeast.
The spiralina method works a treat!
