Hobby 21710 Artemia Breeder, 1 Piece

Artemia crabs are one of the most durable and interesting forms of life ever. Aquarium enthusiasts appreciate the great nutritional value for their fish, especially for young fish and their colour development. In addition, the simple and constant availability of clean live food plays a major role in the rearing of young fish. Artemia has been around for over 100 million years and live in their natural environment with a very high salt content. Artemia are live-bearing animals under normal conditions, they only lay off permanent eggs in stressful situations. For example, with an increase in the salt content in salt lakes, with increased evaporation of the water until drying out. Here, nature has taken a wise precaution so that the individual does not die out. The Embryo “sleeps” in the egg shell until a salt water is created again by rainfall, where Artemia can wake up and a new cycle can begin. With the Artemia Breeder you can easily breed Artemia Nauplien with little effort. The special construction of the breeder ensures a gentle swirling of the artemia eggs and nauplias without them being deposited in dead corners. The result is a high and optimal slip yield. At 24 °C, the nauplias – as you call young artemies – hatch about 24 – 36 hours, at 20 °C after 30 – 40 hours. The egg separator reliably separates the empty egg sleeves from the nauplias. The reddish coloured nauplias settle at the bottom of the Artemia Breeder and can be easily removed for subsequent feeding with the feed pipette via the lid opening. For the operation of the Artemia Breeder, an aquarium air pump, e.g. the Bubble Air Pump 100 is required. Also suitable for professionals.
