Hatching Instructions :
Use a clear plastic or glass bottle for small quantities. For larger quantities use a 10-55 gal. (38- 208 L) fibre glass tank.
Use clean sea water or artificial salt water with a specific gravity of 1.01 to 1.02.
The optimum pH is 7.5-8.5. If necessary, add an alkaline solution made from soda ash or sodium sulfate to raise the pH.
During hatching, use sufficient aeration to keep all eggs in circulation at all times. Pump the air through an air stone to get a smooth flow.
The optimum hatching temperature is 28-300 oC.
Most hatching will occur after 20-36 hours.
To harvest, remove the air supply and wait 10-15 minutes. The nauplii will school on the bottom. Siphon them into a fine mesh net using a plastic tube.
Store cysts in a cool, dry place. For maximum preservation cysts can be frozen.
Description
Peqon Artemia Cysts, commonly known as Brine Shrimp Eggs, are harvested from salt-concentrative ponds or salt lakes. These cysts are a vital food source for various aquatic species, particularly for newborn and young fish and shrimp. The nauplii that hatch from these cysts are rich in nutrients, making them an excellent choice for feeding small aquatic organisms.
Features
:
High Hatching Rate : Peqon Artemia Cysts boast a hatching rate of 90%, making them a reliable choice for aquaculture and aquarium enthusiasts looking to provide nutritious food for their aquatic pets.
Nutritional Value: Nauplii (the first larval stage) that hatch from these cysts provide one of nature’s finest nutritious foods. They are rich in protein, which is essential for the growth and development of young aquatic life.
Applications
:
Live Food for Fry/Juvenile Fish: Primarily used to hatch into live brine shrimp nauplii, providing highly nutritious and palatable live food for young fish (fry and juveniles), promoting rapid growth and health.
Conditioning Adult Fish for Breeding: Excellent for conditioning adult fish, especially those intended for breeding, as the high protein content of live brine shrimp boosts their vitality and reproductive readiness.
Enhancing Fish Health & Coloration: Feeding live brine shrimp can improve the overall health, immune response, and natural coloration of various fish species, including Angels, Barbs, Betta, Cichlids, Goldfish, Tetras, and other tropical fish.
Stimulating Feeding Response: The erratic swimming motion of live brine shrimp stimulates the feeding instinct of picky eaters or newly introduced fish, encouraging them to feed.
