Question about brine shrimp hatching/hatcher

[Razberry910]

I have the ziss brine shrimp hatcher and made up a batch. Room temperature is 68-70 after 24 hours I don't think they hatched. At 48 hours I defiantly had wiggling brine shrimp.  Anyway.

Question: Is there any harm in poring the shrimp, water, and egg husks into tanks? I know the water would add salt water to the fresh water tanks but I imagine splinting the water up over 3000 or so gallons wouldn't effect the salinity that much and would dilute with water changes. 

The reason I'd do this is simply for speed and to make sure every brine shrimp ended up on the dinner table.

you really dont want the husks in your tank, but the brine shrimp and water are okay. with that hatchery, you can get 90% of the brine shrimp out without getting much of the husks.

Yeah, you don't want the husks. Dispose of those.

I wouldn’t add the husks to my tank. You might get a better/quicker hatch if it was hotter?? Here’s a really good video:
