🦐 ASF66190 Brine Shrimp Hatchery for Baby Fish and Reef Tanks in San Francisco Bay Review

The nipple that holds the airline hose under the stand broke after 3 uses. I don't know if it was just a defective unit that was sent to me or if it was a design flaw. I would like to contact the manufacturer, but I don't know how.

When COVID hit us, we decided to cross our female and male roosters! I thought this contraption would be useful for cooking shrimp, but it's bulky and messy. I have simply used an upside down plastic bottle placed in another cup or container with a bubbler line and have had great success. It's too late to return!

Works great with a few tweaks and the egg mixture hatches beautifully. I'll buy some more egg mix. I needed tape on the cap of the bottle, and I also need to remove the ring that's left after removing the cap. It offers a good bottle holder but it was leaking until I added duct tape. I keep it in a wide bowl in case it leaks again, but it didn't.

Best price and fast shipping. I also wanted to mention that I noticed that some of the leaks listed in the reviews were an issue that caused customer dissatisfaction. Still, I decided to give it a try because there were no other options and the price seemed reasonable. Immediately started dripping. However, I was happy to discover that the leak was due to not tightening it well enough. The hatchery is a very good product and very easy to use.

I was very excited about the package I received this morning. Yes, and I was looking forward to Brian's baby shrimp hatching. Everything is well assembled as is the space heater, set to 80°, cut off the bottom of the bottle as you can see, connect to the USB air pump and USB light. I filled it halfway with water and poured in a bag of pre-mixed salted tea and brine shrimp eggs. I figured it would be best to put it in a bucket after reading many other leak reviews. Glad I did. You can see that…

It does its job well enough. Nothing to worry about. This is a very simple system. The base screws directly into a two-liter bottle. Although the base is suspiciously light, I had no trouble tipping over a full bottle. I had issues with the included air hose getting little more than a snug fit on the base nipple, resulting in multiple spills. The shrimp packets with brine were pretty tough. It's hard to argue how easy it is to dump the contents of the bag into the hatchery and start the air…
