Whats wrong with my triop?

So Monkey(my triop) is about 6 days old. She is swimming around like crazy! I gave her a small boiled potato cube to nibble on and she is on and off of it(I took it out cause i thought that might be her problem). Did she over eat and thats what is making her swim like crazy or is it just a phase that small triops go through. also when she realized her potato was taken out, she will swim around even more than before! She will go to the spot where i had her potato and dig around there… i think she misses it.

Can I feed Triops sea monkey food?

I’ve raised several batches of Sea Monkeys in the past, so I’ve got quite a bit of food left over. I’m hatching Triops right now, and am wondering if I could just use the sea monkey food while the triops are babies, and then switch to the pellets (that came with the triops) when they are older.

The sea monkey food looks just liked a powdered form of the Triop pellets.
