I've been trying to raise brine shrimp.  I would like to have a tank with a
constantly renewing population.  I.e. I want the brine shrimp to grow to
maturity and reproduce.
I've followed all the information and advice I've gotten on the subject but 
the
shrimp die within a day of hatching.
I tried it first in a 30 gallan tank which I filled with tap water and added 

tablespoons of kosher salt.  The water was heated to 80 degrees and filtered
with an undergravel filter and there was an aerater as well.  I fed them 
bakers
yeast.  They all died within a day or two.
Then a friend said the tap water could be to blame and to use distilled 
ater.
I filled a 5 gallon tank with 3 gallons of distilled water and 1 gallon of
spring water to which I added 4 tablespoons per gallon of ice cream salt.  
Once
again I used an undergravel filter and this time I fed them Advaanced
Vertebrate 1 Formula.  Again they all died.
The instructions with the eggs say to use an air stone and keep the water
moving.  I've wondered if the water movement after they hatch is a problem 
nd
turned off the filter after a bunch died.  The rest died anyway.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
