I buy mine from Brine Shrimp Direct, and near the end of a
year, I can tell they aren't hatching as well. I buy 1/2lb
of 90% hatch rate (Premium).

As I hatch 1 tsp every day, I'm going to need a new bag
every 6 months I bet. Maybe even more often.

I don't store it in the fridge though, I keep it in the fish
room near the hatcheries but away from lights or heat.
Always seal the bag well once it has been used.

I bought several vials of BS Eggs about 6 months ago. I occassionally
mix a small batch.

The last 3 batches have had little/no yield. I'm using the same recipe
for the water (thanks Marc).

Is there a shelf life for BS Eggs? Is there a way to store them?
TIA
