Description

Decapsulated

Decapsulated (Non-Hatching) Brine Shrimp Eggs

Harvested From The Great Salt Lake (US)

One Half Pound - 8oz - Free Shipping


Also known as "topless" or shell-free, Decapsulated Brine Shrimp Eggs are fed directly to a wide variety of tropical fish - providing excellent nutritional value without the necessity and down-time of hatching. The hard outer shell or chorion of these eggs has been chemically removed using a chlorine solution which is then thoroughly neutralized and rinsed away.� This process leaves the thin hatching membrane surrounding the unhatched brine shrimp embryo intact.

Decapsulated brine shrimp eggs have a higher energy value than live brine shrimp since the energy consumed in the hatching process is conserved. Lipids and amino acids are left intact. Simply rehydrate the decapsulated brine shrimp eggs for a few minutes in fresh water and feed directly to your fry or juveniles (This step is not necessary for adult fish.). Note: A small amount of decapsulated eggs goes a long way. Don't overfeed. Again, these are non-hatching. The oxidation process is exothermic and generates heat in excess of the lethal temperature of the embryo. The further dehydration of the egg to maintain its shelf life renders the egg non-viable. An excellent feed for angelfish, goldfish, and guppies! Also well accepted by coryadora and plecostami.

With the price of hatching brine shrimp eggs approaching that of precious metals, more and more breeders have made the switch to decap.� Decap is also much easier to use and is simply fed from the bag, without the need for hatching the eggs and all that entails!

Shipping is included in the auction price and I'll email you and get an invoice to you at the close of the auction.

Best of luck with your fish!
