Hatching Brine Shrimp from eggs are as easy as 1, 2, 3.

Tips.
Room Temperature or the water Temperature, 80 to 85 F.
The brine shrimp will hatch in 24 to 28 in 80 F and 18 to 24 in 85F.
Below is what I am using and what works the best for me. Others technique I just forget it since I have been there and done that. ;) I want it easy and never fail.

Pictures.
This is what I am using. A gold fish bowl. (Suppose to put a betta in but I used it to hatch my brine shrimp) Aquarium salt and a teaspoon.


I added two teaspoons of aquarium salf into the bowl and that is it. Enough.



I add water from the pipe. Temperature is around 80F to 85F.


I filled up to half the bowl. Around 5 full beanie box water.



You need two airstones. Put it in and let it bubbles.

Let it bubbles for 2 to 3 minutes to let the salt disolved.

Here is a new brand that I am using recently. Any brand work the same since they all BBS. I just get 85% hatching. no need to get 90% since they are more pricy.


I only using two full scoops with the spoon been provided. Around one teapoon. It is more than enough than you thought.


Pour in into the bowl.


After seat for 5 minutes and let them bubbles, I rotate the bowl to make the water move. This will push the eggs from the top surface of the water line down into the water.
Then let it seat and bubbles for 18 to 24 hours. That is it.



I will continue the next part how to catch them.

Part 2 after 18 hours. My house set up to 85 in the summer. LOL I am ok. I get used to it and I love it. So do all the bettas and they are great to breed bettas anytime. They hatch easily.

OK. Get beanie box. You can cultivating at least 5 beanie box in this half bowl.
Put in the beanie box into the bowl and scoop out as full as you can. See how full the beanie boxes are?
So here I just show you two.
You need to let the beanie bean seat for at least 3 to 5 minutes. Then you can see the top look like this.



And the bottom half look like orange colors and those are live baby brine shrimps.


This is what you don't want on the top. Scoop out as much as you can gentle. Those are empty brine shrimp shells.




Leave the eggs shell flooding again for another 3 minutes and repeat again until you see mostly the eggs sheels been taking out. I usually do 3 to 4 times repeatly.

After you feels like very clean, let it seat for 2 minutes and you started to pour into the bbs net. Pour slowly and gentle. You don't want to mix the bottom level that the eggs didn't hatch. You want them to sink at the bottom. You just want to middle part orange color.



Keep looking at the back. You want the unhatch eggs trap behind. Just slowly pour out in to the nets. When you feels like the unhatch eggs are close to drop into the net, STOP! The rest can t go to the drain. LOL



Now you got a net full of live Baby brine shrimps. Wash it off with cool tap water and not hot. Don't kill or cook the Brine shrimp. LOL :lolo:


Now check it out. Yeah. got some eggs there. Just demo and I can pay too much attention while holding a camera. LOL
But At least you know how I did mine. A little bit of eggs wont hurt since the frys not going to eat the egg. Too hard.



OK. You can feed to your frys. :)

I done discribe so it is up to you. :lolo:
This is how I do mine. ;) Never fail and everyday I got live baby brine shrimps.
Tip, Never stop the air bubbles. Keep bubbling if you have extra for the day. I think you can keep the live babies for another 8 to 12 hours.

Awesome! Finally, a detailed way on hatching those darn things. I found a lot of other stuff really had no detail and it was just like..."and then what?"

My life has been saved 2-3 weeks in advance. :wub:

:Thank:

Guess what??
You can decap the eggs or get decapped eggs, and skip the whole scooping out the shells part, PLUS the babies will eat the unhatched eggs!!!
Or at least they will when they get bigger.
The babies, not the eggs, lol.

Okay then..Who's gonna post an awesomely detailed decapping article?

Beeelllllllleeee. :lolo:

Hey, I already did it.
Maybe I put it in the wrong spot, you know me and these early morning postings, lol.
I'll look around... later... when my eyes aren't crossing.

belle. make a new post in this section about decapsulated bbs eggs. :)

How about I just MOVE it, lol.

That was pretty cool Yeevia. I really liked the step by step directions and pics. you ought to write a book or something

I forgot about this, lolol.
I guess that I something else I am going to have to do very soon, lol.
