OSI Red Ring Brine Shrimp Eggs are a trusted live food source for aquarists who want to raise healthy fry and keep fish in top condition. When hatched in saltwater, the eggs release tiny, free-swimming baby brine shrimp (nauplii). They are rich in protein and fats, and their constant movement triggers a strong feeding response, even in picky eaters.

Live nauplii are one of the best first foods for newly hatched fry, including many egg-layers, livebearer fry, rasboras, killifish and juvenile channa. They also suit nano fish, dwarf shrimp, seahorses and corals that need small live food. Because the eggs store well in dry form, you can hatch only what you need each day and keep a steady supply of live food at home.

The 454g (1 lb) pack suits breeders, hobbyists and shop owners who hatch regularly and want good value.

How to Hatch:

• Mix non-iodized salt into dechlorinated water in a hatching cone or container (roughly 25-30 g per litre).
• Add eggs at a light density and keep them strongly aerated so they stay in suspension.
• Keep the water at 25-28°C with a light source nearby.
• Eggs usually hatch within 24-36 hours.
• Turn off the air, let the shells settle or float, collect the nauplii with a siphon or net, and rinse them in fresh water before feeding.
