These links should answer your questions.

I would recommend microworm also as a less time-intensive back-up food. Not as good for colour but if you miss a day setting up the next batch, you'll still have livefood to hand of the right size.

If you do decide to do some brine shrimp hatching, this thread contains some additional information as well as some discussion of other foods:

thanks you all guys, It was very helpfull! I now haave a better ideia. Tomorrow I think on starting... Also I´m very happy to see how to culture some daphnia my only newt food (to larvae)
Thanks again,

hey there.
Here do the young artemia stay? At the bottom or top? And the hatched eggs ?
Also at 18ºC +-, will have any bad consequence?
thanks

I find the best way to harvest them is with a bright flashlight (torch). Here is my method:

1. Turn off air.
2. Place bright flashlight next to hatching container.
3. Wait ten minutes.
4. Shrimp will have moved to light, harvest them with an eyedropper.
5. Squirt shrimp into paper coffee filter.
6. Rinse well with bottled spring water.
7. Turn coffee filter inside out and drag over surface of tank.
8. Turn air back on.
9. Watch larvae feeding frenzy!

The napuli (hatched artema) will swim all about. Hatched and live eggs will sink to the bottom. Dead eggs will float at the surface.

Temperature note: 18C is a bit cold. They will hatch but it will be slow. I get best results at about 22C. Some people prefer warmer hatching temperatures up to 26C. Best way to heat brine shrimp hatching container is with an incandescent desk lamp.

thanks all for the help specially Jhonny:happy:.
It have been a sucess but the naupilus are very small for what was thinking...You can I grow them a bit?
Thanks a lot,

The nauplii are most nutritious during the first 1-2 days after hatching. It is difficult to feed and raise them without killing them. Thus, it is generally recommended that they be used immediately. They are small, but larvae love them (they will eat many of them!)

Thanks Jenn
ok... I presume I must give them sooner I can, after writing this!!
Thanks for the help.
