Thinking of a fun project with your kids or just want to boost the health and vitality of your aquatic pets with our high-quality Brine Shrimp Eggs for hatching live food. Perfect for shrimp, fish fry, and other aquarium species, these nutrient-packed eggs are a must-have for aquarium enthusiasts and breeders alike. 

Why Choose Our Brine Shrimp (a.k.a Sea Monkeys)?

  • Superior Hatch Rate: Our brine shrimp eggs are carefully sourced to ensure a consistently high hatch rate, providing you with reliable results every time. With a 24-36 hour incubation period, each gram of cysts is guaranteed to produce at least 255,000 nauplii (baby brine shrimp) for average hatch rate of over 90%.

  • Rich in Nutrients: Packed with essential proteins, fatty acids, and vitamins, these eggs support the growth, coloration, and vitality of your aquatic pets.
  • Ideal for All Aquatic Species: Suitable for shrimp, tropical fish, marine species, and fry, making it a versatile food option for any aquarium.

Benefits of Feeding Live Brine Shrimp:

  • Promotes natural hunting instincts and activity.
  • Enhances coloration and overall health in aquatic pets.
  • Mimics a natural diet for better growth and development.

Simple Hatching Instructions:

  • Preparation: Fill a clean hatching container with 1 liter of warm, dechlorinated water (28–30°C recommended). Add 1 tablespoon of non-iodized salt per liter of water.
  • Aeration: Use a gentle air pump to keep water circulating continuously during incubation.
  • Add Cysts: Add 1 gram of brine shrimp cysts to the prepared hatching solution.
  • Lighting: Provide a consistent light source during the 24-36 hour hatching period to ensure optimal results.
  • Harvesting: After hatching, turn off aeration and allow unhatched cysts to settle. Use a fine mesh or siphon to collect the hatched nauplii.
  • Rinsing: Rinse nauplii with fresh water before feeding them to your aquarium pets.
  • Storage: Store unused cysts in a cool, dry place or in the freezer for extended freshness.

Tips: Maintain clean equipment to avoid contamination and achieve the best hatch rates. Adjust salinity and temperature for specific requirements if needed.
