Grow Your Own Brine Shrimp

For Baby Fish & Reef Tanks

Freshly hatched brine shrimp are an excellent food for baby fish, small fish and reef tanks. San Francisco Bay Brand® has supplied brine shrimp eggs for the ornamental fish industry for over forty years.

Look for our San Francisco Bay Brand® Hatchery Kit & Shrimpery® to hatch your own fish food or use as an educational tool.

San Francisco Bay Brand® Brine Shrimp Eggs let aquarium hobbyists hatch their own live baby brine shrimp, providing a highly nutritious natural food for developing fish and reef inhabitants. Freshly hatched brine shrimp retain their yolk sac, making them naturally rich in marine-derived fatty acids. Their swimming movement also helps trigger the natural feeding response of fish fry.

These brine shrimp eggs are recommended for baby and small freshwater fish such as platys and tetras, small saltwater fish including gobies and blennies, as well as corals and marine invertebrates such as shrimp, crabs, clams, and feather dusters.

The eggs typically hatch within 24–36 hours when maintained at approximately 80–82°F (26–28°C) with a pH of 8.0 or higher. The product contains 55% minimum crude protein and 18% minimum crude fat and is available in a 6 g vial

Feeding Instructions:

Into a container add 1 quart (1 liter) of water, add 1 teaspoon of brine shrimp eggs, plug in air pump to start aeration, after 1 hour of rehydration add 2 tablespoons of aquarium (rock) salt and keep aeration on. Keep temperatures between 80-82 degrees F (26-28 degrees C), maintain a pH of 8.0 or above and eggs should hatch in 24-36 hours. After eggs hatch turn off aeration, direct a light source at the bottom, wait 5-10 minutes for shells to float to top and baby shrimp to swim to bottom. Remove airline at pump end. Keeping above water surface, slowly lower airline and siphon water into fine net. Rinse shrimp under fresh water and feed to fish.
