hi, i just started hatching brine shrimps for my fishey. they all hatched yesterday so i gave half to my fish and saved the other half in a container, but about 70% of them died.. i put them in the same spot as the hatchery and they had salt. what might have happened? so im hatching them again but i dont want to make the same mistake again… so please help!!
thank you,

umm. brine shrimps need food too. they eat algae and microbes.
feed them spirulina tabs.. and yeast. and keep the temp 80°f…. it’s better to do this in a tank with a heater and aeration.
and give them light too.

Start a new hatch everyday. they’re best for the fry within 12 hours of hatching anyway. Use less eggs. Good Luck.?;)~

well some brine shrimp are expected to die, so you should keep them in a tank instead because its good if they have moving water(lotsa currents) so the live ones wont catch any disease that the dead ones would of had(so it wouldnt spread), and try to keep their temperature high and lotsa salt.

they need food and higher temps. some are expected to die. I would use less eggs and expect death.
