Check out this time-lapse video of newly hatched brine shrimp! 🦐 These shrimp are ‘photophilic’ which means they are attracted to light. When these shrimp hatch, they move towards the surface of the water to feed on phytoplankton. They get their orange color from their yolk sac, which they will carry for about two days. #FloridaAquarium | The Florida Aquarium
