Aquamaster Brine Shrimp Eggs Premium Grade BBS 

● 90% hatch rate
● Easy egg separation
● Best food for baby fry

Live baby brine shrimp is the best food you can offer growing fry for most species of fish. This triggers the natural hunting instinct in fish and helps fish learn to eat. Virtually all baby fish thrive on baby brine shrimp. A majority of community fish that are adults — such as tetras, rasboras, danios, apistos, rams, angelfish, livebearers and more — will readily chase down every brine shrimp they can. 

Directions/Specifications:

Use Aquamaster Brine Shrimp Eggs  with saltwater to make live baby brine shrimp. We recommend using the 24k Brine Shrimp Hatchery as the hatching container.

Hatching the eggs is a simple process of adding  1 tbs of salt per liter of water and then adding the brine shrimp eggs. People often start with 1 teaspoon of eggs and adjust the amount based on the number of tanks they have. Depending on the temperature of the water, eggs can start hatching at 18 hours, but cooler temperatures may not seeing hatching until 36 hours. It is recommended to keep temperatures between 75–80°F for reliable hatches.

Once you have your brine shrimp hatched, remove your air source and let them settle. Baby brine shrimp are attracted to light and will move towards it, so we recommend shining a small lamp or flashlight at the bottom of the hatchery to make collection easier. (A lamp can also be used as a heat source to raise the water temperature during the hatching process.)  Egg shells will float to the top and brine shrimp will go towards the light. Then, open the valve on the hatchery to drain out the live brine shrimp.  From there, you can rinse your brine shrimp with a brine shrimp net or sieve to remove the salty wastewater. Or you can feed with the salt water to give your plants a boost of nutrients. Keep an eye on water parameters when using this method as regular water changes are recommended.
