Waterlife – Decapsulated Brine Shrimp Eggs is a disease free live food, ideal for fry. Eggs goes through a decapsulation process which eliminates all disease organisms and parasites. This process also makes hatching faster and produces a higher yield of shrimps compared to other brands. Decapsulated Brine Shrimp Eggs may also be eaten by most juvenile fish, even before they have hatched, without fear of causing intestinal damage to the fish. The unhatched eggs are just as nutritious as adult shrimp to the fish. Suitable for most fish. You can use it in cold water aquariums, tropical freshwater and marine.
100ml = Approximately 1,000,000 eggs
Directions (Waterlife – Decapsulated Brine Shrimp Eggs)
Tighten cap & shake bottle
Feeding Eggs to fish – Pour some egg solution through a damp cloth (handkerchief or fine net), rinse the eggs with freshwater, (still in the cloth or net) and add to aquarium.
Caution
Do not pour egg solution into aquaria.
Hatching eggs
Place eggs in seawater or common salt solution (S.G. approx. 1.020)
a) -3.5 level teaspoons Ultramarine sea salt to 565ml (1pint) water; -or
b) 3 level teaspoons common salt (NaCl) to 565ml (1pint) water. Whilst hatching, the eggs should be kept in a natural light (e.g. window sill), at a temperature of 30°C (86°F) and aerated with pump for up to 72 hours approximately.
1 ml gives approximately 10 000 eggs.

As many others have stated as well, this is my new “go-to” for hatching baby Brine Shrimp. The decapsulated process ensures that these eggs are free from nasty parasites, and the eggs (hatched or unhatched) are an awesome supplement to a healthy, well balanced fish-diet.

I purchased this when I had my first-ever spawn of Bettas. Lovely product, high hatch rate, and a little goes a long way.

I hatch these and I feed the eggs just as is. It has a great hatch rate but my first choice is to use, as is, for adult fish treats. Just pour into an artemia sieve, rinse, feed and repeat.

Better than I expected. My water is 24° and I didn’t use an air pump, easily over 95% hatched in my first batch. This is my brine shrimp product of choice.

High hatch rate, very easy to do. Betta loves the Brine Shrimp treat. There are about 1 million eggs in the bottle according to the bottle, 1ml is a lot of brine shrimp. This bottle will last a long time. Take note that the product has a 12 month shelf life, so plan accordingly.
