As soon as I saw the title of this video I thought about Sea Monkeys. I had some as a kid and didn't realize they still sold them. For those of you who never heard of them, "Sea Monkeys" was (is) a ready-made kit sold in toy stores. It had everything you needed to start a brine shrimp habitat. The container it came in was the actual jar where they lived and had little magnifying lenses built right in so you could see them better. heh, good times.

he's secretly a boogie worm

I had a sea monkey farm once, the little ones you could buy at stores. I was a dumb kid and added everything at once, eggs, food, all of it. They hatched and died in just a day, so I thought. I left it on my windowsill anyway because it was pretty watching the algae grow that had turned the container green and lush in a couple weeks. Almost a month later I went to toss it out and noticed little specks, brine shrimp! Somehow, some eggs must have laid dormant and hatched after the algae grew. These shrimp also grew way past the advertised 3mm and some got up to one centimeter in length. I'll never forget that strange accident, and this reminds me of it.

I totally love how biological background knowledge is provided here. Ceep up the good work. So far, no ads where blocked or skipped on this channel. You deserve it ♡

I remembered when I was little it had brine shrimp but I forgot to refill it sometimes and once they had no water for 2 weeks, but I refilled it and realized the eggs were dormant and survived, I still have the little jar now. I can only imagine how many generations there are in there, and how much incest there would have been

Me watching this at 3 am: wow I wonder if brine shrimp watch KZread videos in their houses

I culture them by adding micro algae fertilizer (very low in Cu) to salt water along with a micro algae starter. Once the water turns green I add either cysts of freshly hatched brine shrimp. This is a good way to grow adults but they will eventually clear the water and run into a starvation situation. It is really hard to keep them in a balanced ecosystem. They almost always strip out all the algae and then starve. Good Luck, Chris

Maybe you need to add predators or parasites to cull the shrimp numbers before they eat all the algae.

@sergeantsonso3490

@@LifeinJars you need a population of predators in there, as well as crevices that only the brine shrimp can hide in. so the predators can manage the populations of the brine shrimp, then reproduce hopefully as the mature adults die out from either starvation and/or other natural causes, and then the brine shrimp can bounce back in equilibrium.

This was only a matter of time.. nice. I hope one day you can bring us a formula for a diverse and functioning ecosphere made with as many different crustaceans as possible.

Fun video. I have a 1.5 gallon brine shrimp aquarium myself. My guess is you will have problems maintaining adequate oxygen levels to sustain the population until you have much more algea growing. Be aware of that and keep an eye on them lest you kill them all accidentally because of this issue. Good luck and keep up the great work!

You seriously crack me up!! I’m totally hooked on your videos and you’ve inspired me to try these ecosphere jars with my kids to see what is in our local (Florida) ponds, puddles, lakes, oceans, and streams. We have a pond behind our home but Albert the alligator makes collection of water and substrate from it a challenge especially since he hates me for hitting him (accidentally) in the eye with a wad a bread when he refused to leave and let us feed the snapping turtles and fish. Every time he sees me, he comes straight at me and hisses. Currently he’s a baby and not big enough to actually not be stepped on by me if he comes close and we refuse to allow him to partake in our fish/turtle feeding adventures as he should fear us and not depend on us. Anyways love your channel!!

Great video

If you haven't already, can you do a video about triops? They are my favorites! Here in New Mecico I always look forward to find them during the monsoon season! But they are difficult to keep for very long (I know their lifespans are very short). But I think they would be an interesting challenge to create a functioning ecosphere, if possible...

There are freshwater fairy shrimps too, artemia. You can buy the eggs or find a pool in a forest.
