Man! I don’t know why am I showing sympathy toward you coz u look very innocent 😊 You Got A New Subscriber 💪
Thank You Blake for showing us how you set up your system! I have definitely needed to set one up for a while ! Looks like a great project to put together when I get home (if I ever get home 😁😭🤣) thank you for another great video! Thank you so much for the money saving tips! I always appreciate what you do! Have a very blessed day my friend and I always look forward to seeing you around!!! Stay awesome 👍🌱🐟🌱💚
oh wow still not home yet, hopefully your fish pull through. Thanks as always glad you liked it :)
@@BlakesAquatics yes, my daughter has been staying with her cousin and I've been staying with my middle daughter. I know she's going through a hard time and coping the best she can. If I'd known this though I would have just brought them all with me because most of them are bettas. For now it looks like we're going to be here one more week until our next pay period, after all the expense we had to pay for everything. I do still have my GoFundMe money, but for some reason I can't get it linked to a bank account! Otherwise, I would go ahead and head back! 😭 I so appreciate the friendship, you joining us on Father Fish,and all the wonderful videos you share! You really brighten my day and make me want to be part of this fish fam even more!! Much love to you and your family Blake, you are truly awesome! 🤗👍🌱🐟🌱
I have been super intimated about doing BBS. This made it look very simple and easy. I also have a salt tank and can use ready made water for water changes for this. Two easy.
Also, I think I am going to do a submerged version to make sure I get it warm enough and for the lights. I'm pretty stinking excited now. Thank U!
Glad it was helpful! Go for it!
Hi Blake, have you ever tried to grow the brine shrimp to adults? if yes can you demonstrate how to do that please.
Hi Melody, sure I can do that. For the benefit of you now you just set up a basic saltwater aquarium with a sponge filter and feed spirulina
@@BlakesAquatics thanks for excellent information. Really neat how you used cheaper materials. I also would be interested in a video on growing to adults. Thank you.

Great vid. I use same design, but hang it inside of my tank. Ive found the heat helps a lot with hatch peecentage.
I am worried about the heat. I admit, I keep my house like a freezer.
I think I am going to hang mine inside my tanks for both light and heat.
I think he's getting plenty of heat from the tanks (heat rises) and then he has it curtained off to hold in the heat.
I prefer to use tap water as the chlorine helps dissolve the egg shell and makes hatching easier. Also one note is I recommended to actually store them in the fridge, because the eggs go in to a deep dormant period in a freezer where as the fridge makes them mildly dormant yet still active.
Great tips 👍 i wish i could do that but i have chloramine so i couldnt speak to that technique
@@BlakesAquatics dang that stinks
@@brianklimaszewski yeah haha gotta deal with the water that comes out of the tap i guess haha
Nice easy to follow vid Blake, I’m yet to give this a go but looks like a quality meal for the fish.
Cheers mate glad you think so 👍
I have been avoiding brine shrimp since it seems complicated and since I mainly breed things like guppies and flagfish that are fine on my personal dry food powder but I think I need to try micro worms and brine shrimp for my more finicky fry. Also my local saltwater shop sells gallons of saltwater for like a dollar so this is perfect.
@äpplet 1234 I have done daphinia before but powder is so much easier than any live food
Cool! Good to know! we want to start hatching brine shrimp soon too!
Oooh
Another great lesson.🐟🌿👍😄
Thank you! Cheers!
I switched out the cap with one from a dishwashing detergent bottle - it has a flip cap. Easier to drain into a cup and then siphon from there. However.... the eggs that didn't hatch drained out together, so that was a real b1tch to separate them.
Nice idea!
Making this for my little tiny baby axolotls ❤
Very nice tutorial Blake. Keep up the content 👍🏻
Thanks man, seems pretty simple...👍👍👍🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹...
Thank You.
Good information mate I think I’ll try that cheers 🍻 👍
Thanks for sharing
Cheers mate! Very helpful
Glad it helped
Great video thanks.
thats awesome, i need to ad this to my fish room real soon, great vid
The handle was a nifty bit. Good video
Great video as always, I'm really keen to get the ziss blender for brine shrimp. I'm just not sure how often I'd actually use it .
yeah they look awesome.
Excellent advice Sir.👍👍 Could you recommend what brand of brineshrimp with good hatch rates that are available locally for Aussies.
What about a tea container with a spout?
Wow so cool
Hey very nice video I just got some brine shrimp and will be doing the same very soon. Just need to know what would be the ratio for salt to water. If I was mixing my own
hey mate 1.5 table spoons per litre
What temperature do they have to be? And how do you get them to said temperature?
I dont really bother worrying about temperature, people day 25 deg c / 77 deg f but if it is near your aquarium like or another heat source i find that to be ok, if you have good quality eggs they will hatch regardless of light or heat to a large extent
@@BlakesAquatics alright, thank you.
I am in NSW with currently 10 degrees, do u reckon it can hatch in my balcony?
No too cold, sit it under a lamp or something to get it warm
Freezer or refrigerator
Does the light have to be under the setup please Blake?
Or will lighting from the side or above work just as well please mate?
Hey mate, lighting the bottom just makes harvesting easier. Will work either way 👍
@@BlakesAquatics awesome thank you for the rapid reply. Going to make my first batch up tonight.
Cheers Blake 👍
@@BlakesAquatics I only have 10 baby fry. Can I keep the hatched bbs for a few days?
Will I need to do anything specific to keep the brine shrimp alive please Blake?
Nothing special just turn down the air a bit or the brine shrimp will smash each others limbs off. Yeah can keep feeding until you dont see movement
@@BlakesAquatics thank you Blake I really appreciate your help buddy 👍
Good video
Why not use the air hose to siphon them out? save messing around with egg shells and a turkey baster.
you definitely could it would just be a lot slower. :)
@@BlakesAquatics Siphon straight into the tank.
@@justindawson3428 yep definitely. for me i would have to set it up to go into all the tanks and all of that so its just far more user friendly to use the turkey baster
Throwin some brine shrimp on the Barby Mate!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘
can i feed the BBS to my adult gold fish or does it have to grow big for the bigger fish ?
most adult fish will still eat fresh baby brine, even goldfish
Can you really use salt water from the ocean??
100%
That "supa glue"...... Love the spelling

Man I am not trying to be overly critical but you speak far too quickly. Listen to other RUclips users and note when the good ones pause and then speak slowly and clearly. Love your video's mate plenty of good info there.😎 So please make them easy listening.
😅 this video is 2 years old hopefully things have improved a lot since
@@BlakesAquatics My bad Blake, I didnt look at the date on the video, I will make a point of watching something more current of yours :) and I know I am going to enjoy it. Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi. from NSW.
Some people are fast talkers, that's just the way they are, you on the other hand have the option of reducing playback speed in settings if you can't keep up, I often do that if I want to take notes on the information being shared.
