hahah the geck at 11:05
Do you mean the salamander behind the tank?
@@thewalters694 He doesn't keep salamanders! You get lots of Geckos up in Brisbane but it's probably not a native gecko, but instead, an invasive Asian House Gecko!
@@dylansworldofyoutube9030 Those geckos upset me as they block the security cameras at night.
I thought It was a pleco in the tank, but it looked like it had legs so I had to double check, glad I wasn’t the only one
a very nice bug eater :D
Brine shrimp eggs are magnetic! You can always try running a magnet through it, it will pick up all the unhatched eggs and leave the shrimp :)
U fr?
wait fr ???
Okay but this is a life changing bit of knowledge
Kudos for you approaching things from a "hack" perspective. I see too many aquascaping channels advocating for the 20 different things people need to buy.
I've been having some troubles with bad hatch rates, I was putting in 2 tbsp of rock salt (equal to 8 tsp) so I tried the exact way you said (4tsp) and today I got an insane hatch rate of about 90%!! for the first time ever my harvest was pure liquid gold with all live shrimp and not mostly egg shells! I also stopped bothering with getting a certain temp and just put the lamp at a certain distance. thank you so much, babies are all well fed and happy now!!
probably a bit late but 1tbsp is equal to 3 tsp
You used less salt?
Thank you for showing how easy a setup can be! Will definitely try this way!
You’re cute you’re smart you love fish innovative that right there spells perfection so adorable
Your videos are the best! So glad I’ve discovered them. Thank you! So informative and easy to understand.
I love these "easiest way" videos. I have an infusoria kit started right now from that video and now I know how I'm going to provide brine shrimp too. Time to round up a few more supplies.
Always learn something new - and entertaining too! Thanks for showing us your setup 🙂
Subscribed! Really enjoying your content mate.
Your straight to the point, informative, clearly spoken style of videos are really great.
I love your vids bro. Keep on doing this.
Thanks for teaching us!
Great video. U make it simple and affodable. Keep up the great work!
Also FANTASTIC! Thanks, Nick.
Thank you for the Information. This video actually made it wayyyy easier to understand than other videos thanks a lot 👍
Great video. I had an old air pump and have a 3D printer. So I just printed an attachment. Done. So much fun.
I LOVE THIS GUYS SIMPLE WAY OF DOING THINGS. I WATCHED ANOTHER GUY THAT TALKED ABOUT HIS WATER BOTTLE FOR 5 MINUTES, AND NEVER GAVE A DIRECT AMOUNT OF WATER TO SALT RATIO. HE GAVE GRANNIES AMOUNTS. SOME OF THIS AND I FOUND THIS SCOOP. SO A SCOOP OF SALT. NOT SURE HOW MUCH WAS IN IT. SO THANK YOU FOR THE INFO. I WISH I HAD STARTED MY FISH FUN A LOT YOUNGER. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Great vid Nick! Gonna try this with my bbs eggs. Had them for a while now and haven't opened them yet lol. Have a good one and love this method! 👍
Fabulous video. Thank you.
Thank you I have to grow some, I really enjoyed this video. You make it look so easy!
Hey, Still here. Amazing video as ALWAYS! Been busy with assignments and the rest of my family has now got covid. also - there was a gecko around 11:12 behind the tank. Great stuff.
i also noticed 😂
Thanks for watching again bro! Hope fam is ok
Wow Nick this was video was a God send, i've always Shied away from Brian shrimp hatchery's. but because of this video I'm going to try one. thanks again Nick have a great day!
Thank you so much for the tips! Im gonna try it 😁
AWESOME PRESENTATION
Everyone else over complicated it !! Thank you !!!!!! Now I get it 😂
Excellent job
Awesome video nick! Thankyou for a very informative video 🙂. I will definitely try it out mate to feed to my rams.
so nice and simple :D thank u
You got a gecko behind your Aquarium at 11:15 😂
Great video mr Nick! U a good boy! 🥰🐶
Thank You..
im just about to give this a go, thanks for the info matey. cheers
I bred a whole host of livebearers many years ago and had a similar set-up for hatching baby brine shrimp to the one you've got here. Old plastic bottles with an airstone in the caps, inverted with the bottoms cut off. Not quite as big as the ones you use, though, and I had to find a way of suspending them inside the aquarium in order for the temperature to stay consistent. I did splash out a bit and use eggs that had had their shells dissolved, which meant no eggshells to contend with, but I also used the regular variety. I also used water from the tank to mix with, what was called, 'tonic salt', that my local aquarium shop sold quite cheaply for a bag that lasted me months, that meant the eggs would hatch in 24 hours, guaranteed. I would have 2 set up in order to keep a constant supply. I also experimented with a round, dish-like hatchery but the yield wasn't anywhere near as good. I don't know how many guppies, platies, swordtails, sailfin mollies and others I bred over the years. I'd often take my excess to the local aquarium shops and swap them for food and plants!
Really enjoy watching your content
Thank you very much
Great, I just bought a ziss blender hatchery $45 US dollars last week. Ahhh timing is everything thanks nick.
just when i need it 👌
Dude, just stumbled upon your videos and they are pretty educational! Keep it up, I will try and breed some Melanotaenia Papuae with the tips you give out.
Leaving a comment to support you Chanel ✌️
You don't need to ask for a subscribe YOU EARNED IT! Thank you for such great info/tutorial!
one of my swordtails had about 30 babies last night. Made my own hatchery from an empty grape juice container, hot glue and some airline tubing. Thanks for the video!
Awesome video 👍🙏
Super content, love it!
Greeting from Poland
thanks for the help man
Takk!
Just a few points that might make your harvest that little bit better:
1: Try attaching a tiny air stone, to make the tumbling a little more gentle, whilst still keeping the current, it might boost your hatch rate a little.
2: Shine the torch at the top of the container to attract the harvest to the top, purge a few ml whilst the majority are at the top then, then harvest. you'll be getting rid of the waste and the capsules that you don't need, improving your water quality when you feed to your fry tanks.
3: Try feeding them for an additional day with yeast, they will grow and possibly be more attractive to your larger juvenile fish. :)
Thank you for the videos. You are extremely inspirational.
Reminds me I need to start hatching brine shrimp again lol

@KeepinhFishSimple hey nice video! Just wanted to say if ppl don't want or have the equipment they really don't need the air pump. They will hatch out with just the salt/water/container... if you hatch them at room temperature it may take over 24 hours but they will hatch. And for ppl who only need small amounts it works since you get a continual hatch for a couple days....
Awesome video. Ty for breaking down how you have yours setup and pointing out you don't need to go out and spend lots of money on fancy a setup to grow brine shrimp cuz for some it can be confusing and overwhelming when it's not. You're truly helping us to "Keep Fishing Simple" 😊👍
I get it keep fish simple
you can use a neodim magnet for separate shells from brineshrimps
At 11:16 you can see a lizard hiding in your fish room
Hey Nick love your vids, at the moment i have covid. In bed watching your vids. I also have a fish room in the house, i breed lots of expensive bettas, anyway thanks for your vids
I feed mine to big fish too. Like healthy appetizers!
I have been hatching mine out every day for mi guppy fry and man what a difference it’s made to this last batch of fry . There bellies are always full and the growth rate is wiled in comparison
I’ve been working on the same type of brine system for a year now. I switched to a 1/4” drainage valve because It was taking 5 minutes drain the brine through the 1/8” tubing. I am also using an air stone through the top. Less air, more turbulence.
Hello please what is the cap you are using for the bottle? I have no idea where to find the one he is using!!!
Tip. If you're feeding fry that are hanging on the surface, catch the baby brine in a coffee filter, and put them in fresh water. This keeps them from dropping straight to the bottom of the tank when you squirt them in.
lol the random lizard lol great vid man
I have super soft (1 GH, 0 KH) tap water and found that salt alone was giving poor hatch rates, or rather the bbs would hatch and then die. I started adding 1/8 tsp baking soda per liter to bring up the pH/KH and started getting great bbs survival!
OMG YOU HAVE A GEKKO TO!!!!!!!! THATS SO COOL!!!!!!! 11:17 SEC
hey mate love the videos just wondering if in the future youd be able to make a video on all those additives you can see around 8:00 like the melafix and seachem replenish, just wondering what you use them for etc. Thanks for all the tips!
If google doesn't help you understand what those are, he won't either
nice video
Hi there.
I'm watching from the Netherlands and we breed some fish to with brine shrimp
But, i must give a little warning.
We have here salt with iodine and that doesnt work to well with hatching brine shrimps.
Look for sea salt without iodine 😉👍
Standard table salt is the same way in America, in case anyone sees this.
Hey Can You Do A Video On How To Make The Most Of A Single Fish Tank Money From Breeding Fish, Snails , And Shrimp I ( Like What fish Can You Breed In The Same Fish tank Together ) ECT ........
That's a good idea.
Great idea
Guppies and cherry shrimp are a great combo for breeding together!
@@tsl_nightrider3326 cherry shrimp will not successfully breed in a guppy tank because the guppies will most definitely eat the baby shrimp
Try guppies , shrimp and bristlenose pleco’s.
But... if you want to breed something in a large scale and want to make some money (do a spieces only tank) maybe you can try growing plants with fish 😁👍
Great video, thanks. Would you have a link to the screw cap with the two ports please?
Hi 👋I love your channel so much and I have some glowlight and silver tip tetras and I was wondering if you could do a video of how to easily breed one of those species😁😊😲😁
Great video nic my friend 👍👍👍💪
Great video, i would be a little concerned about saying table salt, because of the iodine, but other than that i learned a bunch.
Can you put up the link up for the bottle cap
Hey would you mind sharing the eBay link for those bottle lids please 👍🏼👍🏼
did you find them???? im stuck!
Hey Can You Do A Video On How To Breed Discus Fish
Note the lizard at 11:16
This is awesome. Having a hard time finding the cap on eBay with the two ports
same! no idea what its called
Same, watching 👀 ✌️
NOW I CAN HATCH BABY BRINE SHRIMP!!!!!!
Hi great video. One question how do you collect the brine shrimp when you are using a bottle method you talked about. I mean the protein shake bottle.
1:48 I miss her again
Kin I have a shout out watching from the Philippines
Where did u buy the bottle lids
wow
Just what I needed to see. I bought the San Fransisco kit but was wondering about how meticulous you need to be. Guys at my local aquarium club were saying what you did- just salt and water- no big deal- good to know!!!
💙
Great video! I'm still figuring out the best system for my tiny fish room but so far I've had pretty good hatch rates on the baby brine shrimp. One question for you though what air pump are you using that's able to run that amount of tanks?
Use of a high volume air blower, 15 mm pipes and outlets off these with regulator valves make it possible to run huge numbers of appliances from a single blower. If you find pressure dropping or hard to regulate near the end of the system, add another blower to the other end and you will never run short of air again.
For the brine shrimp bottles, have you tried painting the exterior black, and leave a few inches unpainted, (or some metric equivalent), so the brine shrimp naturally congregate to the bottom, unpainted part? You would also need a dark cap, (the cut off portion of the bottle would work), so they don't just go to the top light.
I think he forgets to mention that they need light to hatch so covering the bottle permanently is not an option but potentially a cover of some sort to use just priory to harvest could help
Hey Dud Great video very useful for hobbyists..how many hrs lighting needed to hatch the BBS eggs..request response asap
a link to the bottle cap splitter would be nice
This
Nice. What do you use on the end of your main airline system to avoid over pressure?
Cool content! I am wondering if it would make more sense if feeding larger fish to actually raise the BB shrimp into a much larger adult brine shrimp, such that one could use much less eggs per feeding, and gut load the shrimp with live Spirulina or other marine algae. It seems to make sense to feed Baby Brine shrimp to fry because of their small size, but seems to be less ideal for adults. I also wonder if turning off the tank's filter during the feeding cycle would allow the shrimp to stay suspended in the water column longer. I assume why many rinse their shrimp is to liberate to 30g/L salt before putting in their tank, with smaller nano tanks being affected more than larger ones. Daphnia magna also seem to be an excellent choice when combined with a live algae like chlorella or other freshwater strains.
Nice job - I just ordered a hatchery from amazon - could you do a product review on different systems?
Why? There's literally no reason to. He gave you all the info you need lmao
G'Day Nick, what ML size pipettes do you use?
Could you give us the link for the double bottle cap please :(
Can you make species profile videos for… everything?
Hey what about the temp requirement. Its pretty cold where i am. Do i need a heater ot tank lamp at certaon distance
Would you comment on the effect of the salt, in the brine shrimp egg hatching, and how it relates to the health, or possible death, of the fry?
It doesn't. Fish don't mind a bit of salt, it's even used as a cure with certain conditions.
How would one go about finding that double line cap you use?
that lizard at the end though lol
So you don't need to use a heater and iodized salt works?
It would be great if you would add links to buy exactly what your using please. Thanks Lori
It's my first time. I'm using a top fin 5gal betta tank with an air stone. Will this work?
Another great video lesson. Please share the name of the background music.
Table salt is that we use in cooking pls answer 🙏🏻
How do you keep it warm though? Mines in tge basement and without element its around 21 degrees
