I know that !

Oh! Sorry just going by your literal words CB! Lol

I think she meant that they hatch more of the eggs.

I doubt that the hatch rate differs much between the various hatcheries. The big difference there is in the quality of the eggs purchased and their origin. The larger units let you add more eggs at a time thus increasing yield. Since the BRS unit can handle three 'scoops' at once and I only need one scoop to feed my tanks for several days, I have no need to go with a more complex unit. If I had a five or ten tanks that needed baby brine, I'd go bigger.

Yeah. I'm not particularly trusting if the state of Oregon. We'll see what happens. This does happen fairly frequently at the state hospital though and I haven't heard horror stories about folks getting stuck with bills. I've had multiple "big wigs" call to check on me (and thank me) and that's been my first question: What do I need to do so my ducks are in a row to get the medical costs paid, and so I get paid?

That's why I offered my help... you're 100% correct, I'm in Risk Management lol.

Ok so if you want to raise them to adult size and in sequence ( 2 or 3 days apart ) then this would not be the way to go ? With the larger system

Ok. I'll DM you

Yes that's exactly what I meant. Its bigger so you can hatch more.

Good morning Noah, how's the Ark coming along?

starting to collect animals.

My plan is starting with the ones that hatch today I'm going to put at least half if not more in my 5 gallon aquarium to grow. I plan on feeding them a combination of spiraling powder and fish food that's crushed really fine. When they get full size I will feed some of them and leave others to multiply on their own. Occasionally I will hatch another batch to add more to the ones I'm growing out as it's needed.

Amanda I guess when I said adult size I meant maybe half of an inch . But I only have a 75 gallon tank at this time . My assumption was to use this larger system to get them to the right size and make concurrent batches . I think putting them in the five gallon is way to do it so I think I’ll get the smaller one instead .

You will need multiple grow out tanks if you want to do that. It takes around 24 hours to get your first yield from a hatchery and it will continue to hatch for around another 24 hours before it has exhausted the viable eggs. It takes at least 8 days to have 'feed quality' brine. They will continue to grow for up to 3 weeks. You get several hundred baby brine from a single scoop in the BRS hatchery and you can do up to three scoops. So potentially the BRS can raise three scoops of baby brine every third day. You would transfer those to a small grow out tank and feed them (Spirulina Powder is most common) until they are 'feed quality'. If you assume that feed quality is 8 or 9 days, you would need three grow out tanks. Seed one and feed, three days later, seed number two and feed, three days later seed third, harvest first, clean and reseed/feed it.

Here are a couple of videos that I found helpful.

Thank you Amanda .
Sorry for the trouble .

No trouble at all my friend! If you decide you want the black one like the guys have I could send you mine. I don't need two.

This works well. If you use the correct net size, it will catch adults and most of the young will stay. Then just reseed as needed.

I do this for a living brother. Im just saying watch your back man. I can give you horror stories by the hundreds.

Oh cool! I didn't realize that.
