I purchased a San Francisco Bay Brand Shrimpery. It's not intended for
raising shrimp to adult size, but it makes getting baby brine shrimp pretty
easy.
All I had to do was put the mixture provided into the container, fill with
cold water. Then you fill the collection cup with water. The shrimp hatch
and swim through the small hole in the collection cup because they are
attracted to the light. You can collect for 24 hours.
