    Ya I didn’t see a heater for it… but I did read about it having a recommended heater but found nothing for it. Didn’t find a recommended thermometer either. Bought a stick on temp gauge. It picks up room ambient temp but should be good enough

    Instead of using baking soda to buffer soft water and increase hatch rate up to 90-95% success..., I use marine salt in the same amount of salt recommended. It not only buffers beautifully, it also adds several other elements that aid in brine shrimp hatch rate(ie calcium, magnesium etc). The other small, yetaaaaaà vital investment I made was to buy a tiny 5$ heater. It's flat, fits perfectly thru the hole at the top of the Ziss hatchery, and has a small suction cup allowing you position it quite low, to maximize hear circulation. Was really cost effective and convinced with the marine salt water I start noticing hatching only a few hours later.... However, for the full 90-95% I wait 18-36 hours(usually just under 24) depending on the time of year. Dead of winter always seems to take a few hours longer no matter effective the options you use happens to be.

    If it were me, id use the handle to hang it on the outside of a tank to free up both hands, one for turning the valve and one for holding the collection cup. And I wish the manufacturer added a little airline clip on the side of the container so that the loop of the airline could be secured in place so that gravity doesn't make it kink (thereby restricting air flow and putting pressure on the pump) over time. But yeahno, thank you for reviewing, this was informative.

      That’s a good idea hanging it up on the tank to use both hands. Thanks!

    Bought one of these recently.
    Happy in general, but the supplied thermometer reads 4 degrees high.
    At least it’s consistently wrong, so can be used to monitor variation if nothing else! 🙄

    Hi Guys! I have a question I have ordered 20 1x1 Java Moss Clippings I guess, I don't know what to tie them on, I don't wanna do wood cause I am doing a breeding tank and my area doesn't sell one type of wood so I want to do a small rock but I don't know what to use....

    • @FishRoomFever
      @FishRoomFever 4 года назад +1

      Lava rock is a great option. You can usually buy a very large bag for under $5. If you did want a wood option and have a Hobby Lobby near you they actually sell cholla wood. You can cut the wood I to smaller slices making it a really cheap wood option.

    I think it only fair to point out that what Corey has sent you is not the same as what anybody else would get if they ordered the 'kit' from Aquarium CO-OP. The 'kit' does not include the airline ($5), the air pump ($9), the salt ($4) or the brine shrimp eggs ($20). If it did you might just be able to justify the whopping $45 price tag. What you do get is a plastic container with a lid, a short piece of rigid tube, a thermometer, an airstone, a drain valve and a stand which is virtually unusable unless you have hands the same size as a 10 year old.
    To buy everything that you have been sent, if ordered from Aquarium CO-OP would cost $83.

    • @pecktec

      I may have referred to it as a kit but it’s pretty obvious there are different products here. It’s not sold as a kit. It’s just what I was sent to demo. And I mentioned a couple of times it’s cheeper to make your own. So that’s worth mentioning too.

      Ah well they closed all the theatres for the company I work for that week and most of my coworkers were furloughed. Lots of decades old friends going to other jobs as we all scramble around trying to see how we will make a living and say goodbye. So perhaps I had a few other things on my mind.
