How to Hatch Brine Shrimps for your Aquarium

If you have an Aquarium of fishes and you want to encourage fish breeding, or your want a low cost way to show your children a bit about nature. What ever the case, here is how to create an environment to hatch your very own Sea Monkeys or Brine Shrimp:

  1. Find a clean container; a cleaned better/margarine tub will do fine.
  2. Fill with water. If you have chlorinated water, you will need to use an alternative, such as bottled water. It is good idea to allow the water to stand for about an hour.
  3. Position the container near a light source
  4. Add a tablespoon worth of rock salt (or table salt that’s non-iodized salt or aquarium salt). The ratio of salt to water is  one tablespoon of salt to a gallon of water. Allow the salt to fully dissolve.
  5. When adding brine shrimp eggs, you will find they will initially float and disperse on the surface of the water. Add enough shrimp eggs so that it covers the surface area equivalent to circle base of a tea cup
  6. Ensure the water is kept to about 25 degrees Celsius (about 80 degrees Fahrenheit)
  7. Your brine shrimp eggs will hatch much quickly if you can add a air pump with an air stone so to cause a constant stir of the water in the container

Now all that’s left to do is wait; it can take over a day for the brine shrimp eggs to hatch. Once they have hatched , you can feed them to your aquarium fishes.
