30 year old brine shrimp eggs

[Wulfonce]

Confirmed! Some have hatched!!!

I just scooped up a bit of the brine with a spoon and set it down on the cupboard to get a closer look. Out of the 50 or so eggs I scooped up 4 were hatched and swimming around! I cant believe it!

I'll be sure to post a video later but until then I'll give them more hatching time.

10 hours to go.
