Baby brine is very easy to hatch but I know that somepeople don't do it and you can usually only find adult brineshrimp in the store (at least here).

I decap my eggs before hatching so there is little or no chance of introducing aipistos (sp?)

Great treat for filter feeders and even some fish especially mandarins.

If there is any interest let me know, I'll be happy to bring you some.

HI wildthing, there a product out there called life A. It comes from Germany and 250ml bottle contains appox 4 million decapsulated artemia cysts which can be hatched at any time with shell free nauplia. Keep up the good work.Ade

I've heard of it. I think its pretty expensive. Decapping isn't hard or too time consuming, I do a largish portion and keep it in the fridge for 2-3 weeks. Or you can keep it in a brine solution for months.
