Description

Hatching Brine Shrimp Eggs Helpful Hint: Brine shrimp egg is sometimes very buoyant. In order to maximize the hatching percentage, it is sometimes helpful to swirl the water inside the hatching container with your finger once or twice at intervals in the first 4 to 6 hours of incubation in order to knock down eggs that have been stranded on the side of the container above the water-line. After about 6 hours, the eggs are usually well-hydrated and will stay in the water column. Hatching Procedure The following steps will achieve optimum brine shrimp hatch rates. 1. Set Up: Place hatching cone or similarly shaped vessel in well-lit area. Cone should be semi-translucent for ease of harvesting and light transmission. 2. Add Water: Fill cone with water and adjust salinity to 25 ppt (parts per thousand). Optimum hatching temperature is 82F (28C). 3. Add Cysts: Add cysts at the rate of 1 gram per liter. 4. Aerate: Provide adequate aeration to keep cysts in suspension. 5. Hatch: Depending upon water temperature, cysts should hatch in approximately 18-36 hours. 6. Harvest: After hatching brine shrimp, turn off or remove aeration and wait several minutes for the shells and and baby brine shrimp (or nauplii) to separate. Newly hatched nauplii will settle to the bottom of the cone or move towards a light source; the shells will float to the surface. Once separated, the nauplii can be siphoned from the bottom with a length of air tubing or gently drained through the bottom of the cone through a valve, if so equipped. 7. Rinse: The warm incubation temperatures and metabolites from the hatching medium create ideal conditions for a bacteria bloom. Rinsing of the baby brine shrimp in a fine mesh net or sieve using clean fresh or salt water is important before feeding them to your fish. 8. Clean Equipment: Tanks and brine shrimp hatching equipment should be cleaned routinely
