It is a shallow ring-shaped dish: you fill the outer ring with salt water and brine shrimp eggs and snap on the black lid. As the nauplii hatch they swim toward the light entering through the opening in the center and gather in the clear central well, leaving the empty shells behind in the dark outer ring. Scoop them out with the included sieve spoon and feed. Made in Germany by Hobby, it is the tidiest way to keep fry, seahorses, and picky fish supplied with live food.
