GREEN WATER FARM Fairy Shrimp Thailandensis Eggs Live Fish Food for Hatching and Culture Suitable for Feed Betta Fish

I've bought these before and hatched about a hundred shrimp from a vial. This time I increased the water volume to a 10 gallon tank and created a gentle currant with a bubbler wand so the water slowly circulates the tank. I also increased the water temperature from 78F to 80F. This made a massive difference. I have hundreds and hundreds of babies this time. I think the key is volume of the water and temperature. Smaller containers of water will fluctuate more in temperature and become dirtier faster. I have no filter and I'm pouring a litre of green water from the pond in every day. They are so cool! They devour algae until the water is crystal clear!

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I was skeptical based on the mixed reviews, but I think it's pretty clear now that the bad reviews are because of user error on their part. Within 24 hours I have experienced about 85% hatch rate. These are clearly fairy shrimp naupli, all of them. The people that reported daphnia and moina also say they used tank water, well, duh. They introduced those other micro colonies from healthy tank water. I hatched using plain bottle water at room temp. I actually started them in a water bottle at one capsule per half bottle of water and set them in a window that gets only morning sunlight. I added microalgae to the water and I will transfer them into a shallow kiddie pool pond with a planted tank LED for grow out. Excellent product. I absolutely recommend it.

I set up two containers for the eggs to hatch in. Both have RO water and one is under a heat light. It's been 3 weeks and neither has hatched anything. Now, I ran into this with Moina eggs I bought a couple of months ago on Amazon. Over a month in, nothing hatched. I had four containers set up (2 with RO water, 2 with tap. 1 RO and 1 tap under a heat light, the othr two, without).I contacted Green Water Farms and they sent me more eggs. Those hatched within a couple of days without any special conditions. The original eggs eventually started hatching after a month, though not many hatched from the Amazon eggs. I think I'm running into the same problem here. There must be some mishandling of the eggs once they hit the Amazon warehouse. Could be way too hot or something. I wouldn't say too cold because it's recommended that you store them in the freezer. I may contact GWF again over this. 05/17/2023 Guess what? Still, nothing has hatched. 06/30/2023 Things started hatching a couple of weeks ago. I say things because I have 1 fairy shrimp and a ton of either Moina or Daphnia. I have one capsule left. I was hoping to raise the shrimp to feed to my juvenile axolotls. I guess that'll never happen.

Did not hatch, had them in a heated fish tank didnt do anything

Got hundreds of pets worked as pets and doubled as fish food !!! Perfect! Thank you guys also try their triops guys !!!! Especially the red!! Trial and error not as easy as dairy shrimp but much more involved !! My 2 cents 😁 dairy shrimp are timeless and always gon be a staple in my household as a treat for my aquatic fishy friends ✌️🐟
