Hatching Instructions

• Into a container add 1 quart (1 liter) of water, add 1 teaspoon of brine shrimp eggs and plug in air pump to start aeration.
• After 1 hour of rehydration, add 2 tablespoons of aquarium (rock) salt and keep aeration on.
• Keep temperatures between 80-82 degrees F (26-28 degrees C), maintain a pH of 8.0 or above and eggs should hatch in 24-36 hours.
• After eggs hatch, turn off aeration, direct a light source at the bottom, wait 5-10 minutes for shells to float to top and baby shrimp to swim to bottom.
• Remove airline at pump end. Keeping above water surface, slowly lower airline and siphon water into fine net.
• Rinse shrimp under fresh water and feed to fish.
