Brine Shrimp

[John Allen]

I am having a go at hatching some brine shrimp for angel fish fry and wonder
how strong should the air circulating be . Is the theory the stronger the
better true. I am using one of those continuous brine shrimp hatchers that
stays in the aquarium and the shrimp can swim out of once hatched.

Thanks

Yes, the better the aeration the better the htach/ Keep in mind also
that bbs lose their nutriative value in hours. It's the yolk sac
that contains all the nutrients, and the nauplii ise that up in 3-4 hours.

This is why books say "FRESHLY hatched brine shrimp" They're not kidding
about the freshly part.
