Brine Shrimp

[abelfruitcake]

i searched and i have seen various figures ranging from 7 grams to 34 grams per litre of salt for hatching brine shrimp. can someone tell me how much they use please.

I use marine salts now to a specific gravity and pH using RO water. (gives better hatching results).
For the simplest method (and one I used previously) is just under 2 Tablespoons of Cooking Salt (not Table Salt) per litre of ordinary Tap water
Then add a tiny amount of Sodium Bicarb. to increase the pH and alkalinity a little if your local tap supply is less than 7.5
