Here's a short video of my tank....<iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/HZaEY2yeTSQ?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> ...first part is my attempt at raising brine from eggs(10 days), Second is my Macro/Sea Horse tank and the third part is my 125 gallon mixed reef softie tank. Sorry about the video quality but it was on my Galaxy 3 phone. Something killed off all the baby shrimp tho' I think I fed them food that was in the fridge too long!

I didn't see any problem with your video, but then I don't even know how to do that.
Seeing the reef tank makes me miss all mine that I no longer can look after as what energy I have left now is devoted to my seahorses and fry.
I don't know if it will help, but I have a brine shrimp page describing my ordeals with growing brine to adult but it's on a large scale and high density cultures.
It may however, give you some ideas on how to tailor your set up to succeed better.

I think it would still be cheaper for me to just go to the LFS every 3 days and buy 4 cups worth, unless one of my males get pregnant, then i'll start growing baby brine again to feed baby Sea Horses. I don't have the space to set up a Brine hatchery(no garage, I live in a triple wide until I get kicked out from a foreclosure)

Just had my sump dump 20 gallons of water on my rug yesterday, a hose came off my skimmer and started pumping water out the top of the sump. Not fun!

O wow, that's a bummer! 20g of saltwater isn't fun anywhere but especially not on the rug! I hope you have a good shop vac and fans! Sorry that happen to you. Just remember, what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! Corrie ten Boon.

That just adds to the smell in my house...LOL At least we caught it before it drained my sump enough to burn out my pumps. Just bought 3 body wash type sponges to see if my pods will hide in em and give the Seahorses another hunting ground. put one in my sump, one in my Seahorse tank and one in my mangrove tank

Yes, burning a pump would just add insult to injury so I am glad you caught it as well. Good luck with the body wash sponges and let us know if it works.
