This may be off topic. I recently met a Japanese
researcher who has developed a method to culture and
raise live brineshrimp more rapidly. He has also
developed a method to decapsulate eggs without using a
chemical bath.
If interested in this contact me offlist.

I am glad you asked this, because I have been learning about this on my own
and have some questions. Does your method use bleach? I read three parts
water to two parts bleach to take off the shells. I would also like to hear
from folks who raise brine shrimp on a regular basis. Is there a way to keep
it manageable and tidy? I would like to treat my fish to live brine shrimp,
but do not want an open upside-down milk jug on my kitchen counter
constantly. I bought one of these black boxes where the shrimp are supposed
to swim up to the light through a tiny hole in the collection jar. While
tidy, there is no means to put in an airstone, so the hatch rate was poor.
Has someone thought of a nice system?
Thanks,
