I have a setup similar to Jennifer Macke's brineshimp hatchery where I use a 2 liter bottle secured upside down and upright with an airstone at the bottom of the bottle.
I have about a liter of water, a tablespoon of salt, and about an eighth of a teaspoon of eggs. I have been starting them at about 5 oclock PM and I leave my desk light shining on them until I go to bed, and in the morning when I wake up I have brine shrimp, by the afternoon I have more than enough to feed my larvae for the day. And since I have a pound of eggs, I just hatch a new batch each day. Is this normal? I expected to have to wait a couple of days before I could harvest them. But they are very plentiful by the next day, and my larvae's bellies are constantly orange now.
is it possible that not all of them are even hatched and I could come back the next morning and have just as many brine shrimp so that I don't have to start a new one each day?
