The Lab Test
When processing finished for artemia cysts,we will promplty take some samples to the laboratoary for test,one test is artemia mositure,one test is artemia hatching rate,after tested,we will take the artemia to the freezer in order to keep the quality.
When you want to order,we will test the quality again in order to assure the quality which you want.
How to hatch artemia cysts?
.Use a transparent or translucent cylindroconical cone or tank.
· Supply air through open aeration line down to the tip of the conical part of the tank.
· A valve at the tip of the tank will facilitate the harvesting of the live artemia.
· Hatching temperature of distilled water, (28 Celsius) (84 Fahrenheit).
· PH should be 8.75to 8.85.
· Salinity should be 20-30 parts per thousand (ppt) salt solutions or approximately 3% salinity.
· Illumination should be 2000 lux at the water surface, entire 24 hour hatching period.
· The density should be 1.6 gram per litre warter.
· The hatching time should be 24 hours.
· Storage -15 to 6 Celsius for up to 6 months. Keep out of direct sunlight.
. If you take the artemia cysts from storage, please keep 12 hours outside, then to hatch.
