16oz Brine Shrimp in a can,, now what?

[Sir Douglas Cook]

16oz Brine Shrimp in a can,, now what?
The can says "Keep in a cool dry area", My whole condo is hot. No basement!
Although it does say "Refrigeration or freezing is desirable"

Question:
Can I put the can of brine shrimp eggs into the freezer after I open it?
If so please explain, won't the condensation damage the eggs when I remove
them
from the freezer??

I don't think I would freeze mine, maybe the fridge. Make sure the can air
air tight. Or add a moisture absorber in the can.

Or, hatch large batches of them.

I keep my 16 oz can in the freezer. The eggs are not damaged when removed
however if used directly from the freezer to the brine mixture the hatching
time will be increased. I remove a small tube full at a time and get 90% +
hatching rate.
