On Drs. Foster Smith's web site (And in their catalog) they have a continuous hatching station for brine shrimp.  Has anyone tried it?  Obviously Suzy does not need to try it!]]> Thu, 06 Jul 2006 02:36:38 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119551&title=continuous-bs#119551 <![CDATA[Continuous BS? : I took it to mean both. ]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119546&title=continuous-bs#119546 Author: Mark Peterson

No, that is their tiny 2 gallon hex tank!

I've found with my camera, it I get too close to the glass, it is way blurry, but if I back up a few inches, it turns out. Then, I crop it closer. Did you see the pic I got of a copepod? That was from a microscope.

I should have elaborated a bit on the decapsulation question. I don't because I rarely have to hatch! I just let the mommies have their babies live, then I siphon some off and add more phyto....the culture just lives on!]]> Wed, 05 Jul 2006 08:47:18 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119478&title=continuous-bs#119478 <![CDATA[Continuous BS? : BTW, your pictures are incredible....]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119471&title=continuous-bs#119471 Author: Guests

BTW, your pictures are incredible.  Are they in a petri dish? Or are you looking through a microscope?  I've tried taking pictures of my new clownfish larvae and the pictures turn out terrible.  The camera focuses on the heater or the other side of the tank, or even the rotifers.]]> Wed, 05 Jul 2006 00:01:34 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119471&title=continuous-bs#119471 <![CDATA[Continuous BS? : I don&#039;t.

I don't. Mone seem to thrive on skummy water!

I try to keep their water tinted green with tetraselmis. I have read it has a natural antibiotic? But, I always thought the reason some of the BS in the GSL were green because of what they ate? Mine are all red....]]> Mon, 03 Jul 2006 06:05:52 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119306&title=continuous-bs#119306 <![CDATA[Continuous BS? : I&#039;ve had great success with...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119302&title=continuous-bs#119302 Author: Guests

I've had great success with growing brine shrimp out as well.  They are so easy and everything in the tank loves them.  What are you feeding yours?  Just phyto? 
 
I've started to decapsulate the eggs before starting a new batch and I'm amazed how easy it is.  I should have been doing that  a long time ago. It keeps the water so much cleaner.

I think I remember Mr Rhyne saying shrimp can be both genders. When a female has her brood (as live fry babies), she then becomes a male?

They have live babies, but when it gets colder, and the food supply diminishes, they start making (cysts)eggs.

I think they could easily be raised in a saliinity of 1.020, but when they are added to a tank with any other live creatures, they are instantly eaten! They are so quickly consumed, I don't think it matters what salinity you add them to! ]]> Sun, 02 Jul 2006 18:44:40 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119273&title=continuous-bs#119273 <![CDATA[Continuous BS? : Suzy, you&#039;re killin&#039;...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=12989&PID=119267&title=continuous-bs#119267 Author: dkle
