Ken's Fish- this is my fish club's former president's side biz. I am currently working on a can of 90% I got from him a few months ago. good hatch rate. A 1lb. can to your area will run you about 28 bucks including shipping. He also has cheaper grades and I have used the 80% hatch stuff with success also. All his other flake type foods are high quality as well.
North American Brine Shrimp- they also have good brine shrimp eggs, and they are currently running a special on their new 6 oz packs of eggs ($11.75). add 5 for shipping and it will run you about 17 bucks. I have 2 of the 6 oz packs in my fridge right now. It's heavier than you would think 6 oz. would be. Their 1lb. cans are a little more than Ken's prices.
Both links can be found on my fish club's website: http://www.petsforum.com/tfsri/ click on "fishy websites"

Brine Shrimp Direct- haven't ordered from them, but have heard nothing but good things about them. http://www.brineshrimpdirect.com/
