    This is a perfect video for brine shrimp hatchery. I like using SMART water bottles because they are smooth and make for better viewing when checking on hatch rate. Plus when I empty a spent bottle I don't throw the content away. I pour it into a big container out on my deck and raise the baby shrimp into adults to stimulate my breeding discus pairs into spawning. With algae tablets I feed them and the sun also causes photosynthesis and algae growth.

  • @kzookid2051
    @kzookid2051 2 роки тому

    I really like how you use a second hose to remove the hatched brine shrimp. Everyone else seems to use a suction tube or baster, and it looks like it would be very hard to get as many as you wanted without several tries. I have a 29G with nano fish who will love this.

Like oldest bottle on the left and freshest on the right. That way you know which one is which without looking at the dates.

    Great video. When you shut off the air how isn't the water and shrimp flowing through the airline tubing goi going to the air valve/pump? I would think you'd want another ball valve on the air side and close it close to the cap so you do t lose a lot of shrimp though the air side

    Joey, I have a challenge for you. A micro saltwater aquarium. One that can hatch and sustain brine shrimp and support small coral. I currently have a micro-salt, but cannot get the brine shrimp part of the ecosystem because my current filtration kills them. This is a challenge of lighting, and filtration that doesn't kill the brine shrimp. I would forever be a fan if you can pull this off. Im thinking a 1.5 to 3 gallon would be perfect. Hope you reply!
