brine shrimp are a great food for new baby fish or you can grow them on to adult size to feed bigger fish.

Each purchase contains thousands of eggs so you will have a constant food source for quite a while.

these can make any breeder a success with raising fish fry.(both salt and fresh water)

Brine shrimp are a common food source used for both larval and adult fishes. The ease of hatching eggs and the commercial availability of the adult stage has made it a popular food source. Brine shrimp nauplii emerging from their protective shells are extremely small, mostly less than 500 µm but can differ according to origin.

Brine shrimp nauplii are an excellent live food, not only for fry but also for adults of the smaller species. However, they are not suitable as a first food for all fry; some fry are so small that they will require micro organisms(SEE MY OTHER ADD FOR MICRO-WORMS). Brine shrimp nauplii can live in freshwater for around 4-5 hours before they die, making them an ideal live food for small fry.



HATCHING INSTRUCTION:

1. Add 3 gr of artemia in 1 liter of water.

This requirement should be strictly observed.

Otherwise the level of the hatching rate cannot be guaranteed.

2. Be sure to use 1 tablespoon of aquarium salt per ltr

3. The optimal pH level is 7.5-8.5.

4. The optimal water temperature is 28-30°C (82°F).

5. The best hatching time is 24-30 hours.

6. Forced airing is necessary to keep all eggs in suspension all the time.

7. After hatching harvest and rinse the nauplii.
