This product is for keepers who raise fry or small fish and want to feed live Artemia instead of buying ready-made food. The eggs are hatched in your own setup, so the hatch is ready when the fish need it, and the pack is designed for both fresh and marine systems.
Why it matters
- Nitro Pack packaging is intended to keep the eggs fresh and to support a high hatching yield.
- Live nauplii are a size-appropriate first food for very small fish, which the supplier describes as a nutritious option for growth.
- Simple hatching process: the eggs hatch within 18 to 30 hours in salted water with aeration, and the empty shells float to the surface, making the nauplii easy to collect.
- Dosing guidance of about 2 g of eggs per litre of water gives a clear starting point for batch size.

What it works with
The eggs suit aquarists who keep fry, juvenile fish or small species that take live nauplii, in both freshwater and marine tanks. The hatching step needs a separate cone-shaped hatching vessel with an air line reaching the bottom; the supplier recommends the JBL Artemio Set for this and the Multi Digital Spoon for measuring doses accurately.

Frequently asked questions
A conical hatching vessel with the narrow end pointing down works best, such as the JBL Artemio Set, along with an air pump. The air line should reach the bottom of the container, and an air stone is not recommended.
Use 25–35 g of sea salt per liter of tap water (about one tablespoon) and add about 2 g of eggs per liter. For precise measuring, the Multi Digital Spoon is recommended.
If you use kitchen salt, add about 3 g of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) per liter, which is roughly one teaspoon, along with the salt.
The eggs hatch within 18 to 30 hours. After 24 hours, stop the aeration, wait 10 minutes for the nauplii to settle, then pour them through a mesh and rinse gently with tap water.
Yes, the product is intended for both freshwater and saltwater tanks. The nauplii are suitable as food for fry and small fish.
