Brine shrimp have the ability to produce dormant eggs, known as cysts. This has led to the extensive use of brine shrimp in aquaculture . The cysts may be stored for long periods and hatched on demand to provide a convenient form of live feed for larval fish and crustaceans .
The tables below present an example of an artificial seawater (35.00‰ of salinity) preparation devised by Kester, Duedall, Connors and Pytkowicz (1967). [1] The recipe consists of two lists of mineral salts, the first of anhydrous salts that can be weighed out, the second of hydrous salts that should be added to the artificial seawater as a solution.

In biology, moulting (British English), or molting (American English), also known as sloughing, shedding, or in many invertebrates, ecdysis, is a process by which an animal casts off parts of its body to serve some beneficial purpose, either at specific times of the year, or at specific points in ...
A sustainable fish farming facility in Sarasota, Florida called Mote Aquaculture Park launched a commercial demonstration project in fall 2014 with the purpose of demonstrating marine aquaponics farming practices. The project raises the saltwater fish species red drum alongside salt-loving halophyte plants, sea purslane and saltwort.. The ...
Traditionally, shrimp farming ranges from intensive to extensive systems. IMS aquaculture is similar to extensive farming in that it doesn't depend on chemical inputs, formulated feed and shrimp larvae but instead relies on natural feed and natural shrimp recruitment from the exchange of tidal water.
While M. rosenbergii is considered a freshwater species, the larval stage of the animal depends on estuarine brackish water. [5] Once the individual shrimp has grown beyond the planktonic stage and becomes a juvenile, it migrates from the estuary and lives entirely in fresh water. [5]

Juvenile shrimp will molt more frequently, as they must shed their exoskeleton as they grow.

If they feel endangered by predators, they will abandon their eggs.
