not to many of the aquariums sell b/shrimp hatcheries anymore.Air pumps for sea monkey(aka brine shrimp)don't really exist.(i'm in BRISBANE,work in aquarium)We all rig them up with air-hose/airstone&pump&this works perfectly to hatch&raise/grow&feed them.Regardless of air they will still die in a few days if not fed..do you have food?will you be doing the yeast...??
Hatch&raise them for food for my betta,gourami/paradisefish fry(baby guppies are having some to)....will be going for new live hatching/raising method testing tomorrow,will ask dreeder/aquarium owner(where he buys his stuff,might get for you)will post back what i find out.,,plse contact,if need).
PS:if you dont know,why post?just for the point???

Everything but the fliter is absolutely perfect for sea monkeys ( and please call them brine shrimp, sea monkeys is such a kiddish name lol) All you need for a tank like that with brine shrimp is the air pump and salt the filter will suck up any weak brine shrimp and or the eggs i have been running a 10 gallon brine shrimp tank for years ( i use them to feed my cichlids) with just the salt in the tank and an air pump hope this helps good luck!

Sea Monkeys really don't need an air pump, they are so small that the air going into their tank can hurt them.
These little guys are a lot of fun to watch, I used to keep them when I was a kid.
You could use a small pump with an airstone if you want to.
Sorry, I can't help you with the Aussie web sites.
Also, you could go to the pet shop they might be able to give you some more options..

Sea Monkeys are actually brine shrimp. You want something really strange, get some "triops" eggs, they're Australian I think.....prehistoric.

You can buy one online at petco.com or petsmart.com. These are some main pet stores in the U.S. so you can find what you need. I am sorry this isn't a whole lot of help but I do not live in Australia.
