How much salt for brine shrimp?

Question

how much salt should i use for brine shrimp??? It's the salt my dad uses for his saltwater tank.

Answer 1

You use about 1 teaspoon a gallon. Make sure you have good aeration though. The aeration is more important than the salt. If your dad has a saltwater tank, why are you even asking here. You can just use some of the saltwater he has for his tank. That's the perfect concentration for brine shrimp. :)

Answer 2

You wasted 15 points on a question you didn't even think out clearly??? If you put the shrimp in your regular aquarium, the fish will EAT them. That means they die, unless you are going to dedicate yet another tank to brine shrimp. What exactly do you mean?

Answer 3

That depends somewhat on the brand of brine shrimp.. Different brands come from different types of brine shrimp and are collected in different areas, so I would suggest you check the package or the website of the particular brand you have.
