If they are frozen brine shrimp, they're probably too big for the fry to eat. Crushed flake food, specialty fry food or baby brine shrimp are great food for fry. You should try to feed the fry 3 to 5 times a day, and do extra water changes for them.

Like Lotus said really.Little and often is the way to go.

ps.don't expect those fry to last long unless you have plenty of plant cover if you have some big fish in there with them.

i have been fish breeding and they were live-bearers and i use liquifry for livebearing fish and none of the swordtails i was breeding died and the food is a liquid that has small particles in it that disperse and are easy for the fish to eat. then when they get bigger i feed them on the other products for baby fish and i also use newly hatched brine shrimp.
