About Us

U.S. Brine Shrimp is a producer and supplier of premium brine shrimp eggs (Artemia cysts), an excellent larval food-source consumed by fish and shrimp hatcheries found in the aquaculture industry.  The principals here at U.S. Brine Shrimp have over 40 years of combined experience in a variety of aquaculture disciplines, ranging from feed formulation to Artemia processing.  This expertise has resulted in offering one of the highest market hatch-out rates of nauplii (baby brine shrimp) per gram of cysts at 75 – 90%.

We deliver a fine selection of shrimp egg products that are 100% sourced from the Great Salt Lake in the state of Utah, USA. While many hyper-saline lakes contain strains of Artemia, very few can be commercially harvested. As the largest remnant of the prehistoric Pleistocene era in the Western Hemisphere, the Great Salt Lake serves as a wholesome backdrop for harvesting a rich bounty of brine shrimp products for our wholesale clients.  Since the lake is rich in nutritious algae and diatoms, our product line offers one of the highest consistent quality and nutritional profiles found in brine shrimp eggs.  Our fish food is highly palatable to lure even the most finicky eaters.

For the retail market, we provide brine shrimp eggs and fish feeds for tropical, freshwater, and saltwater aquarium enthusiasts. We have a hearty appreciation for our marine hobbyists and offer a “low price guarantee” to fish breeders and hobbyists nationwide. We want to be your #1 choice for all your aquarium fish feed needs!
