Hi Friends !

Just wanted some urgent help on the Brine Shrimp hatching...

Actually this is the first time I'm trying to hatch the Brine Shrimp eggs and I'm really confused if the eggs have hatched...

I followed the general instructions available in various websites and its almost 24 hours now. I switched off the aeriator to check if anything has hatched, but I'm really not able to make out if its done yet....

The eggs are all suspended in the middle of the bottle and there are a very few floating and many sunken at the bottom of the cone (bottle's neck)

Now, how do I find if its done or if I have to run the aeriator for some more time....

Kindly help me friends...
Thanks and regards
Kush
 
shine a bright light on one side of the bottle for ~15-30 minutes. the brine shrimp will be attracted to the light...tiny little orange wiggling pinpoints (and light will let you see them better). if none yet, turn it back on, give it another 6-12 hours and check again.
