How to Hatch Brine Shrimp Eggs with NO Equipment | NO Air Pump Easy Setup
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2020
- Hi, everyone! Recently, I have been wanting to feed my fish live foods. I wanted to try hatching my very own brine shrimp eggs but quickly found out through research that most of the hatcheries required other external equipment such as an air pump and heat source. I thought to myself, "how can I achieve the same result (hatched baby brine shrimp) without the hassle of the equipment?" Well, my tank contains all the essential items in order to hatch the shrimp, so I decided to just use what I had, and to my surprise, it worked! I hope you all try this out, it is so easy to do, and it's very fun to watch these little crustaceans hatch.
Measurements:
1) 1 2/3 tablespoons of salt per 1 quart of water
2) If the pH is under 8.0 ppm, add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda per 1 quart of water
Other Notes:
1. Optimal temperature is 80-82 degrees Fahrenheit
2. Hatching time can range from 18-48 hours

Do baby brine shrimp need air pump to grow ???
.
Sea Monkeys for professionals.
@@Guppyhobby4223 not really
How long can brine shrimp baby live?
It will hatch for sure, but you will get way better hatch rate if you use airpump with regulated flow..Greetings from India❤️

One small but important point - the empty shell cases float on the surface after hatching. What you have at the bottom of the container is not egg shells, they are unhatched eggs. Using your system you will never get a 90% hatch rate, you'll be lucky to get half of that. Just get yourself the smallest air pump available, a couple of feet of air line (you don't even need an air stone) and an empty 1 or 2 litre water bottle and your hatch rate will increase dramatically at very little cost.
Thanks
@Yeshua's Words And maybe you can tell us all how this relates to a video concerning how to hatch brine shrimp eggs to feed to tropical fish? Can I suggest you take your sermon and post it somewhere else, there are plenty of Christian videos out there who might appreciate your input.
Don't reply to the bot

Imagine watching your food being born and slowly growing in front of your eyes!!!
Everyone who lives on a farm....)
@@AlbertoMartinez765 lmao
Farmers 🤦♂️
Soooo farms-😭
People who live in the country?
Shrimp : Yay! I am born!
Fish: 😮
Shrimp : waaaaaah!!!!!!
The people saying to use an air pump totally missed the point. Thank you for sharing this video!! It's great to know that success can be had no matter the equipment you have ❤
I'd give this 49 more likes if I were able. I'm glad someone pointed this out, as the lesson seemed to go over quite a few people's heads. Not everyone has the money for even "the most inexpensive air pump," and the intention of this video was to be useful for ~everyone~. If you have an air pump and "swear by it," did you come to this video JUST to ridicule the people who can't afford a "cheap" setup? $20 might not be a lot to one, but to another it might be more money than they've seen in months (living paycheck to paycheck.) It's also nobody's business how they spend their money, so what makes them think they have the right to tell them how to spend it?
(*You is used in the general sense of the word, and none of the latter-half of the rant is directed towards OP, just - EXAMPLE - "you" people complaining about an "air pump.")
@@behindtheglamour If you can't afford $20 for an air pump, you prolly can't afford to keep fish in optimal conditions.
Right?? I'm considering raising brine shrimp for my fish. I don't have a lot of fish! If I could set something up even smaller than this, that would be FINE. I don't need a perfect hatch rate. I just want to spoil my fish.
@@Mastemine498 why spend money that you don’t have to spend…? If you can hatch them without the pump, why would you go out and by one? You’re very elitist, classist, and sh*tty.
@@MaiAriSquee did you find something smaller? I use containers about 1 cup size, or a bit bigger, placed on top of the glass, so warm. the BBS keep hatching even after several days. I siphon some up and rinse them through nylon stocking.
To be honest i've never heard anything about those shrips so at the start i was like: oooh you can hatch your own pets! That is cool!
*Girl feds them to the fish*
Me: but i thought- 👁️👄👁️
Same, but now I knoe better.
Same
artemia are the same type of creature as sea monkeys, so you could get those instead if that's what you're going for
@@WowCoolHorse :O
@@WowCoolHorse oh cool! So if you decide to keep them, will they get bigger and bigger?
Imagine being born just to get eaten
👀 legit everything
That s reason i don t want to buy
life is eating you everyday dumbass
I mean like, farms
Imagine being born just to be on display in a glass box, for someone's pleasure.
With the help of this video finally I understood what brine shrimp is and how it works.
Thanks for sharing.
One of the best and more detailed Brine Shrimp How To Vids I've come across, quite surprised at your success rate without the use of an air stone. Great job👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
When I was a kid, I would hatch brine shrimp ever couple of weeks. All I used was table salt, tap water and an old welch's jelly jar. Sprinkle a bit of flour to help the grow for a couple days. Then I would pour them into a piece of nylon stocking to get rid of the salt water and shake them out into my 20 gallon tank. Easy peasy and frightfully cheap for live food.
This doesn't work. You need airpump. This is like making gasoline from compost.
Love this. You dont need fancy equipment. Understandabley if you are raising them to feed large quantities of fish its not practicle. But for the average person with 1 tank or. Small tank this works great. I hatch mine in an empty gallon milk jug heater and air stone.
Everyone talking about imagine being born just to be food but nobodies talking about how beautiful those fish are- 💖❤️💖❤️💖
Fancy guppies, you should get some they breed like crazy
Everyone talking about how it must be to be born to just be eaten, be happy you're at the top of the food chain
Thank you for this amazingly simple way to hatch BBS. I used a container with only 1 cup of water so had to calculate the amount of salt, and It works for me - the copper rasboras and neons love it. I just needed to find an easy way to rinse the BBS before feeding, so improvising, I used a small tablespoon size sieve covered in a piece of pantyhose, squirted the BBS onto this, rinsed in a small stream of tap water and dipped the "device" into my aquarium.
Ive heard a magnet on a string with collect the shrimp shells, I know it sounds crazy but it works.
It really dose work
Only artificially magnetized shells
@@user-vg7gn5uu5v yes
I’m never going to do this, but this is so interesting! I love it!
I *might*try it one day (or not), but they're definitely fascinating little creatures. The dormancy of the eggs - and the mere fact that this is actually an animal more or less unchanged in the last 200,000,000 years!
@@CopenhagenDreaming ikr!!! Pretty insane!
I’m left wondering when a soda bottle and an airstone became “extensive equipment”
Yes, I've actually only seen people do it with cheap plastic containers of various kinds (including bottles) and MAYBE an air pump. (Though if they're only going to be in the container for 24-48 hours, perhaps aeration isn't really an issue.)
That's not extensive equipment. But it's also not a good hatch rate.
@@piperlourion007 Brine shrimp don't care about their container being plastic or glass, just give them a heated water, with a bit of baking soda and enough salt, and drop an air pump
I usually use the heated side of the refrigerator to keep it warm because I can't be bothered to buy a heater for it
@@arthurheine5631 again. Bottle isn't extensive equipment. And for sure, you can obviously do as you said. But as I said, it's not the best hatch rate one can achieve.
@@piperlourion007 and how do you achieve the best hatch rate? What's the setup?
so cute...it kinda makes it look like the fish have their own pets/maybe food as well
Love that little Pokémon music at the end
and at the very beginning..
I don't even have pet fish but these videos are so amazing and very informational. Even the shorts! Love your fish and keep up the good work!
This was really great! Very clear, friendly and supportive. I have small aquariums so don’t need the big setup. I can do this!! Thank you!
OK.......This video has inspired me.
I'm doing this simple method and no doubt a video will follow.
Credit to you for giving me a push, thanks for sharing :)
Isnt that the "seamonkey" that we got as a child?
They are lmao😂
Yep
Wait what y’all got fish? I’m confused
@@mynochannel7859 not the fish, they sold these shrimp as instant pet in packages and cute tanks and even keychain as child's toy haha
Its the brine shrimp or artemia not a sea monkey but sea monkey are brine shrimp species too. Sea monkey is hybrid breed from brine shrimp called Artemia NYOS, and sea monkey mostly for being pet and Artemia is for feeding baby fish or little fish.
This is a very informative video. Very clearly explained and demonstrated. I feel like no important detail was left out and i now know everything i need to know. Thanks for this.. ☺️
You mean *_The Amazing Live Sea Monkeys Ocean-zoo The World’s Only Instant Pets_*
It is important to note that your tank temperature makes a difference. Not everyone keeps their tank at 78 to 80°. A lot of people like to keep their tanks below 74° because a lot of parasites and things like it aren’t active at those temperatures. They also do better if you leave the light on all the time.
u do not keep light on all the time there is no need for that and just asking for things like algae etc
I agree with everything *but* the lighting bit. Lights are only for our sakes, and if you have live plants, for those as well. 8 hours is the max recommendation for lighting
Wow this was like a pro move. It's sits so nicely in the tank!
I just followed this who tutorial since I didn’t get a air pump and it worked!!!
Fabulous video, and of course most of us only want small amounts of live foods at one time anyway.
Lucky Guppies and the Wisteria plants look sensational :)
I love this! I’ve set it up for my Betta and i can’t wait for him to have fun!
How did it go?
I love that 8-bit feeding music.
Definitely brighten up my day lol
Your fishes are so lively and happy.
She had me dead when she said I’m gonna feed them to my fish , I was like “wait what! I thought they were going to live and have a nice life and grow to be adults🥺”
Adult brine shrimp look pretty freaky. Besides, they’re going to a good cause. Baby brine shrimp that still have their yolks and super nutritious for fry and really help them grow. Maybe you can have a packet next to the fry tank commemorating their sacrifice to feed the fry.
Lol
@@sonofaquack6987 this caused me to google "adult brine shrimp" and now I'm disturbed. I'd rather cuddle a horseshoe crab then look at that again lmao
@@arirose5887 yeah, im not too big of a fan. Especially since Im pretty sure they turn into flies after that.
@@sonofaquack6987 two different things
Nice🙏 I just ordered the eggs and will give it a try,
Very nice. I thought it would be difficult and costly, but you fixed that problem. Thanks!
Amazing video, very simple steps, gr88888 camera clarity and zoom... thank you 😊
Pls be careful about the size and weight of the brine shrimp container you use. If you use something that is too big or heavy, your guppies (or other small fish) may get crushed between the hatchery and the glass, if they get curious and venture in to explore. I’ve had this happen to me in the past. I don’t want it to happen to you. I’d advise that you get a proper hatchery, like one that still sits inside the aquarium but has suction cups so it stays fixed a set distance from the glass. Or you can put filter foam in there at all 4 corners, to ensure your fish don’t get crushed between the hatchery and the glass.
every one in the comments like "Imagine being born just to be eaten" are gonna lose it when they here about whales, like seriously there kill counts are off the charts
Or veal. Or any other mass consumption meat.
I thought killing whales was illegal??? Where does this happen? That's so horrible, whales are very intelligent creatures....
@@sly-fi6502 Yeah I don't agree with the consumption of veal. Or honestly the way the beef industry handles it all either, pork, chickens, etc. Very cruel. I watched too many of those horrible videos
i was taking about how whales eat millions of shrimp in one gulp ya dinguses
XD
Thank you for posting this! I am happy to see I don't even need any kind of airstone.
You do if u want a higher hatch rate
This was very helpful during Christmas I got a brine shrimp science set you had to hatch them and you could examine them with the tools and it even had some samples of things you can look at under the microscope it came with but the microscope was mainly for the brine shrimp
I think I’m gonna give this a try thank you for making this and showing us this
This doesn't work. Do you have common sense
@@herohour6496 yes it does
imagine raise hatching pokemon and feed them to other pokemon
they eat pokemon too
10/10 down to make one of these! These fish look like they’re having the time of their lives and I want my fish to enjoy their snacc like that
They’ll absolutely have the time of their lives, and you might too! I found it very intriguing, that’s for sure 🤓
Great advice. Need to get this for my breeder tank! Thanks
Its amazing how to shrimp is still alive even when not in water
I loved feeding my fish brine or fairy shrimp. I'm always like, "Herbivores, my butt."
Herbivores my butt🤣🤣
Hahah the Nintendo like music made my day. Thanks for the video! I’ll definitely try this!
Great DIY! Loved the commentary, was really informative!
Thank you , I may try this someday. 🖖
Why not 😉
I'd hate to mix them up with my instant coffee
This is my favorite video on how this is done.
It's one way to do it. However, the hatching kit you showed is not expensive as you claimed, and is a great simple way for hatching. I recommend it for beginners
imagine being made just to be eaten
*Promised neverland Flashback*
im making mine for pets
Nooooo 😭😭😭
Yakusoku no neverland🤣🤣🤣
Fish have become monsters for fish
We do that everyday when we eat store bought meat 😂 we just don’t have to see them
Is the intro music jigglypuff's song?
Great!
Very simple and effective
This video helped me out so much. Awesome, doing it this way this weekend...
The unit of measurement of this video is killing me
I have that hatchery kit but ima try that instead because it’s looks more fun to me idk why but great vids
im so hyped this is so cool
Thank you for showing an easy way to hatch brine shrimp.
I dont know why YT recommended this video for me and why im watching but here i am.
Throw another 142,500 brine shrimp on the barbee.
Awesome tank.
I don’t have fish to feed shrimp but something compelled me to watch this
Pro Tip: BBS don’t need salt if you’re hatching them as food. Only needs baking soda to raise ph.
how about the ratio?
@@devan4776 Don’t have exact measurements, kind of just experimented but I usually do 1 tsp per liter of water.
NOT true. Have you ever done this?????
@@herohour6496 Yes, I have done this plenty of times...which is why I know it works and recommended it lol
Baking soda hatches them while salt helps them live longer. Most of us are just hatching it fresh to feed to our fry fish so the added salt is not necessary.
@@NeonKue good shit. How do I get around cold water? I don't have a light or a heater. I'm using the 2L bottle kit.
*Finally born*
_I'm gonna see the sunligh--_
*Gets eaten*
_O-O_
This is the way MANY animals go. Sad but that's just the way many ecosystems work.
Thank you so much! I'm going to do this in my fry tank. I remember my Dad and Grandfather using coffee filters, aeration, etc.
Awww its so adorable, the shrimps just born to be food
Chickens, goats, cows, pigs, fish, on and on. It's called farming.
@@harrysachs2274 its call life
I have about 25 varieties of guppies i love them they'r long wide colourful tail is at another level
I thought these were female bettas. I would like to have those pretty guppies
Who remembers those sea monkey things when we was kids
Love the feeding music and footage!
Music name??
Thank you so much for showing this easy step by step instruction.
8:58 I see baby shrimp swimming back 😂
Your fish are adorable when they’re eating-
So satisfying
That jiggly puff tune was legit!!!
WAIT WAS THAT JIGGLYPUFF'S SONG AT THE BEGINNING OR AM I CRAZY
00:00 wait a minute ! Is this that
Jigglypuff's song ? 😂😂
I discovered your channel today. Im glad I did, that was satisfying to watch.
Loved it!
Shrimps: Happy birth 😃
Fish: Yes indeed *chomp
-_-
This scene is like promised Neverland👁👄👁
Very cool setup.
What a great video! God bless!
Thanks for showing how to use the scissors
Me: "mmmm i wonder how people do this"
Me after watching: "She's a witch!!"
Thank you for your explaination on this method. Great job!
Awesome video! Thank you! ❤️
Everyone be like “imagine being born just to be eaten” and I agree but at least there in a better place now :( I keep mealworms for my ant colony and I give them fresh fruit and let them grow to become beetles and then kill them if needed because they don’t deserve to die when there young.
It can be breed like that? Because mine so many have become a beetle
My opinion is that any of these feeders lives a better life with me than they would in the wild. No matter how short. And sorry, but you need to feed your babies babies unless you can culture insuforia and copepods.
@@rylsahmad people do. But beetles eat their own eggs. Seriously, how does anything we keep reproduce in the wild? They all seem to eat their young and eggs.
@@-8_8- yes thats what i think, and even other mealworm will eat a small mealworm. They eat anything if they need too
No way ppl are this sensitive ab brine shrimp wtf
Great video! How do you wash the baby brine shrimp prior to feeding?
I’m wondering the exact same thing!
You can use a brine shrimp net. You can get one on Amazon. The nets strings are so small that the brine shrimp can’t go through. Pretty much draining them.
nice video. easy and effective and effortless methods. finally, concise instruction in transcript with links. thumbs up
Edwin from Costa Rica. Thank you for your tips. Will do !!!
The people saying to use an air pump totally missed the point. Thank you for sharing this video!! It's great to know that success can be had no matter the equipment you have
"out of the stomach into the stomach again"
i love this channel, it has all i love, nintendo and fish
Nice tank 👌
You also need a air stone so the eggs don’t sink
Baby shrimp:
God, Why do i have to be born only to have merely a minute life and be brutally murdered?
Imagine veal 💀
i love fish i love these videos
Thank you! I am def going to try it!
