Hatching brine shrimp

[Untamedrose]

How strong should the air bubbles be? First time hatching my own and I worried I am over doing it here..

Do you have a phone to catch a little video?

Ya got me there on the tech...

Can tell you that it's throwing the eggs up about two inches from the water line and I'm using this pump https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B39POAI/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I could tie a knot in the line to slow the air....

Ya, that sounds like a little too much. I used adjustable tee-adapters.

You want a gentle roll not a white water rapid . +1 on the air line valve controls . Can be found at wal-mart in the fish supply section .

Will get an air line valve......but tie knot was a solution I had right that second. Slowed it down a lot. Seems to have worked.

Got baby brine shrimp! This was kinda what ifs an experiment, never done it...wanted to do it...More then an actual plan.... wel yes n no wanted to see how hard it was really for maybe future tanks/critters.

Know they need to be separated from the shells.....and drained out. BUT if I add these to my main tank...know they are really to small to be consumed by most of the stuff in there. Will they live and grow to feed the tank....or are they just going to die and cause issues?

Summed up in I made em now what!?

You can put them in a small 5 gallon or a little smaller tank and grow them a week or two and then feed them to your tank . Been a while since I have messed with them .
