Hobby Artemia Breeder – Compact Hatchery for Live Brine Shrimp Nauplii
Description
The Hobby Artemia Breeder is a specialised incubation unit designed for reliably hatching Artemia eggs (brine shrimp). This system provides a consistent and effective way to produce live food for tropical fish, fry, and invertebrates in your aquarium.
Verified Specifications & Features:
-
Optimal Design: Features a unique internal design that ensures gentle water turbulence. This prevents the delicate Artemia eggs and nauplii from settling in dead corners, resulting in an exceptionally high, optimal hatch rate.
-
Clean Feeding: The integrated egg separator functionality cleanly separates the empty egg shells from the newly hatched, reddish nauplii. The live food naturally settles at the bottom, allowing for easy, clean removal using the included feeding dropper.
-
Capacity: 470 ml (0.47 Litres) volume.
-
Dimensions: 10.5 x 7.5 x 18.5 cm.
-
Hatching Time: Nauplii typically hatch within 24–36 hours at 24° C, or 30–40 hours at 20° C.
-
Installation: The compact unit includes a base for standalone placement and a bracket for secure installation directly onto the side of an aquarium.
-
What's Included: Artemia Breeder with cover, base, aquarium bracket, air supply accessory bag (PVC tubes, aeration stone, hose adapter), feeding dropper, dosing scoop for salt, and dosing scoop for Artemia eggs.
Please note: An aquarium air pump is required for operation but is not included in this set.
