Great video...I use the bottom of the bottle (that you just cut off) and place that inside the open top side of the hatchery so the bubbles over spray does not end up on your table and lamp. This also helps to keep the water warm as your hatchery now has a cover. The point on your lid should face down so any condensation will drip back into the hatchery.

I have found that "ready made brine shrimp solution packs" you find at local pet stores or even online may have been on the shelf for several months to years. While this may not entirely be the reason for poor hatch-out, all harvesting companies on the GSL use refrigerated storage (38F), and usually ship there product in refrigerated containers. Also many companies using the "ready made" packs use a lower hatching egg. I hope this helps. Good luck!

@abc0sprach To separate the bbs from the shell you just remove the air...the brine shrimp will sink to the bottom and the shell will float to the top. However if you have a low grade and a poor hatch-out batch of brine shrimp eggs the unhatched cysts will sink with the bbs to the bottom and it is impossible to separate...that is why I recommend the higher hatch rates 80% or above. Usually the higher hatch rate, the better separation. Great question!!
@saltlakebrineshrimp

@the55gal Good question. The companies that process and package the brine shrimp eggs are inspected by the USDA and are required to disinfect the egg. Therefore the egg is usually very clean if it is of the Great Salt Lake origin. The only contaminates or bacteria would be from one’s own hatching process...or foreign egg.

@mrblaster55: You will want to hatch the brine shrimp before introducing them into you tank....the cysts could potentially lodge in the digestive track of your fish and kill them. Also you are able to control various hatching factors in a cone (with air, light, temp, etc). Hope this helps.

@tsenaku Air is essential for hatching brine shrimp. The air will keep them suspended in the water column...other wise the eggs will sink to the bottom and basically die because of the density of the egg at the bottom.

This is awesome and so easy to do and cost 1/100th of that frozen stuff. I have FreshWater Cichlids so if i use the straw to harvest i empty it into a very fine mesh strainer over the sink & can rinse with few DROPS of freshwater. (it's a Tea strainer think i paid $2 for it at Wal-Mart or K-mart) it also works for those who buy the frozen shrimp or blood worms. You add to strainer, pour warm water to thaw N RINSE so that nasty cloudy water goes nowhere near ur Tank. rinse strainer /reuse

It's best to feed the freshly hatched brine shrimp 24-36 hours after harvest. Growing brine shrimp to adulthood is very difficult as they will die in the hatching cone. You would need at least two large tanks, and then transfer the brine shrimp into the other salt water tank once a week...clean the tank they were just in...make a new saline solution and continue with the transfer once a week, feeding spirulina powder or bakers yeast. It is possible, but very time consuming. Hope this helps.

@pusapoiss Thanks for the suggestion. BBS will only survive 3-4 days without food...during these 3-4 days they are living off their yolk reserves. That is why BBS are better to use as feed immediately versus adulthood. Adult brine shrimp typically will reach 10mm in about 2 weeks.

Thanks for your question. Brine shrimp will survive for several hours in fresh water. You will only want to feed as much brine shrimp as your fish will consume in 3-4 minutes...How often to feed them would depend on type of fish and if there is an artifical feed (how much) you are supplementing the brine shrimp with. I hope this helps.

@wildrupp: Brine shrimp will only last a couple days in the hatching container. I recommend only hatching what you will use in a 1 or 2 days. The best thing to do is run two hatcheries on alternating days. Or you can freeze in ice cube trays and feed to your fish (only the brine shrimp will be dead but carry the same nutritional value).

@AesirSovann Brine shrimp will need some air...and for sure a larger tank as the stocking density in the hatching container is too small and will kill the artemia.

@bigfish324 This is a good question...baking soda is purely sodium bicarbonate (which is what you want). However baking powder has baking soda in it, but it also includes an acidifying agent, and also a drying agent. I am not sure how these will act in the water column. I think I would play it safe and only use baking soda. Hope this helps.
