One reason why I prefer feeding mysis. Those are collected from freshwater lakes.

I'm not sure if there has ever been a study done if Cryptocaryon and Amyloodinium cysts can survive being frozen but I would not rule out the possibility. Cryptocaryon cysts can for sure survive cold water temperatures in a state of hibernation and produce infectious stages when the temperature rises above 19 °C again.
