The effect of temperature, pH and lighting on the habitat preferences of Artemia Franciscana
Introduction
Artemia franciscana, known more commonly as brine shrimp inhabit salt swamps and saline lakes. Few other organisms can tolerate such a high concentration of salt as is found in these locales. They thrive in extreme environmental conditions such as high salinity and temperature where predators cannot survive. Since few organisms can grow at such high concentrations found in certain lakes, brine shrimp have little selection in the way food. …
