Amazing incubator, Easy to use! 100% hatch rates
I breed about 30 types of tropical fish and growing and I spend a ton on food each month. Certain types of fish need to be supplemented with live food. Now eating freeze dried foods is ok but if you want your fish to be happier and more healthy over all you need to provide live food several times a week. This incubator was hands down one of the best investments I have ever made and I will be purchasing a few more as well for my growing operation. It was so easy to set up and use even the most notorious fish killer can successfully hatch brine shrimp in it. It comes with tons of extras including two slow feeders, storage tubes for excess shrimp that will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days and pipets for easy transferring of the shrimp. You will not be disappointed in this very well made incubator. I know I am and it is very well made and in fact this is the best one on the market. You will not get get the great quality and all the extras you get for this price anywhere else! I highly recommend it to everyone. If I had the extra cash I would go ahead and invest in a few more. I am a disabled veteran so I am on a fixed income and breeding snails and fish is a great form of PTSD treatment therapy. And this little incubator helps me continue my project doing what I love and saves me money in the short and long term!

Great kit!
This kit has been amazing and a lifesaver for my baby axolotls. I didn't get much use out of the vials and tubes, but the net and pipettes get a ton of use. I make a half pack of the prepacked egg mixture in one batch and it works great for my needs. I rinse it out with hot water after each use and with peroxide before the next use. My only complaint would be that the pipette have not held up well to regular use - I'm on the third/last that came with the kit. The seam at the bulb keeps splitting. Overall, a peccadillo when considered as a whole package.

Great so far
The media could not be loaded. This is a pretty neat gadget. Very easy to set up. The hardest part was trying to figure out how I wanted to dispense the brine. I chose the bottom. My eggs should arrive in 3 days and I will repost my results. It is a good size tube and very sturdy for cleanings. Wish me luck!🍀 👍🏽✌🏽

Do not put more than 1/4 tsp of egg
The media could not be loaded. I don’t usually write many reviews, but I’ll do it when I think it can truly help. The Saricho brine shrimp hatchery incubator, priced around $25, performs well overall. I use it for single-feed batches and have tested it several times inside my dedicated grow-out tank.Using about 250–300 ml of RODI water with 1 tsp of marine salt mix and up to 1/4 tsp of eggs, I consistently get around an 80% hatch rate at ~77°F after about 36 hours. Of course, hatch rate will depend on the quality of your eggs.The main drawback is the included air stone—it doesn’t sink properly and doesn’t distribute air effectively from the bottom. Also, the incubator’s capacity is limited, so I’ll likely need to buy one or two more for larger batches.That said, it’s far cleaner and more convenient than the old DIY soda bottle setups. A solid choice for small-scale brine shrimp hatching.

BB hatchery
My two major dislikes are: 1. The amount of salt that accumulates on the top thru the openings. It not only gets on the hatchery but on my countertop. 2. It produces much more noise and is noticeably louder than my other hatcheries. Glad I have it in my guest bathroom. The size is good for three to four feedings for my dwarf seahorses. It was easy to put together. For cleaning you will need a decent bottle cleaner to clean the hatchery after finished before starting a new batch. The base could be wider to make it more sturdy to prevent it from tipping over so easily. Overall a good hatchery.

Zero complaints
This little kit is awesome! For the price it's kind of shocking how good the included air pump is. I figured it would be junk, but it's strong and has worked for months. This kit is perfect for hatching brine shrimp either on the counter or in your tank. I tend to hatch them in my tank as the temperature is more consistent. I've been able to achieve an over 90% hatch rate with every brand of eggs I have purchased. I'd highly recommend this kit to anyone. It's so cheap for what you're getting.

Poor quality plastic braces
The media could not be loaded. I set this hatchery up and with the first 3 uses the plastic brackets I use to hold it to the side of my tank snapped at the middle.Complaint number two is the size of the hatchery, very small and narrow making the water bubble violent and causes the eggs to get pushed out of your salt water mix which doesn’t allow them to hatch!The hatchery is easy to use and it works, for 20 bucks it’s worth it but, it’s not durable and I know soon I will have to buy one.I will be going to aquarium coop and buying there most modern hatchery for brine shrimp.For a first time buyer this product is decent but it will break if it’s like mine.
