I am looking for tip on how to harvest bribe shimp. Also does anyone have a specific net suggestion or alternative? The two nets I gambled on were not fine enough.

The usual brine shrimp nets allow fry through.

I bought mine from Kens.
He has ( or did have) Baby Brine Shrimp nets.
I would say it catches 98%

I visit fish rooms as part of speaking engagements. Actually, putting together a fish rooms visit talk to add to my offerings.

I'm always looking for something to share to put into the talk.

I have pictures of a really nice simple to harvest brine shrimp set up I saw in Vermillion, Ohio. Uses soda bottles, PVC and drip watering system parts. PM me your email address so I can send pictures.

Buy a brine shrimp net. Look for it with that name. I have been using them for years to harvest newly hatched baby brine shrimp. Always rinse after use with fresh water since otherwise when drying salt crystals can destroy the net. I clorox mine whenever it gets yellow. Go to brine shrimp direct if you cannot find the nets elsewhere. But most fish warehouses have them. ANd if you are in an emergency use a cotton or silk handkerchief.
