All of the supplies necessary will be found at an aquarium or pet store; you can shop online if that is more convenient. You will need many supplies for your brine shrimp tank, including: 10 gallon tank Sponge filter (that comes with a tube, a sponge, and a hookup for the air pump) Air pump Tank heater and thermometer A package of brine shrimp cysts (eggs) Aquarium salt mix (setting up a brand new aquarium means you will need about 13 pounds of salt per 50 gallons) 1 gallon container with a lid 10 gallons reverse osmosis water Refractometer or hydrometer for measuring salinity Gravel vacuum Flashlight Saltwater tanks should not be near any windows, doors, heater vents, direct sunlight, or air conditioners so the temperature of the water does not change rapidly. The tank should also be set up near electrical outlets because you will need to plug in the heater and air pump. Leave room between the tank and the wall so the air pump will easily fit. The surface should also be level. Dry the outside of the tank once you are done, and then place the tank where it belongs in your home. Make a saltwater mixture with aquarium salt and reverse osmosis filtered water. Fill the 10 gallon tank with 9 gallons of water so there is room for the salt. Then, add the salt per manufacturer's instructions. The salt container will have specific instructions for calculating the amount of salt necessary for your tank. Don't worry if you add too much or too little salt; you can adjust the levels before adding the brine shrimp cysts. The salinity of the tank should always be 30-35 ppt (parts per thousand).Use the instructions for your refractometer or hydrometer to measure the salinity of the tank, and add more salt or more reverse osmosis water accordingly. Operating the refractometer or hydrometer involves placing some of the water inside via a dropper or other apparatus. Test the water until you reach the correct salinity. If you've mixed the saltwater correctly according to the manufacturer's instructions, you will not have to tinker with the mixture. This is the best filter to use in the tank because it will provide aeration, filter the tank water, and won't suck up the tiny brine shrimp. The filter should include a tube, a sponge, and a hookup for the air pump; if it does not include the hookup for the pump, buy this separately. You can place the sponge filter on the bottom of the tank or mount it to the side of the tank, depending on the model you purchased. There are many cheap filters on the market nowadays, but do not scrimp on filtering equipment. Faulty filters may cause the brine shrimp to die. Using airline tubing, attach the end of the sponge filter to the end of the air pump. Plug the pump in, and the filter will begin working. Keep the filter on a sturdy surface behind or below the tank. Set up the heater according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once you plug it in, you can begin to control the temperature of the tank. Place the thermometer on the opposite end of the heater so it is easily visible. Once both the heater and thermometer are installed, you can adjust the heater so the tank is always at the correct temperature: 68F (20C)-79F (25C). Turn it up or down accordingly. Once the tank has maintained this temperature for 24 hours, it is stable enough to hold the brine shrimp. Check the temperature at least twice a dayif the heater is accidentally unplugged or the temperature drastically changes for any reason, your brine shrimp could die.

Summary: Go shopping. Determine the best location for the tank. Rinse the tank to remove any dust. Fill the tank with a saltwater mixture. Track the salinity with a refractometer or a hydrometer. Set up a slow air-powered sponge filter. Attach the air pump to the sponge filter. Install the heater. Install the thermometer using manufacturer's directions. Keep the tank between 68F (20C)-79F (25C) for 24 hours.

If your child's eyes bulge outward because of this syndrome, it is important to keep them lubricated. The best way to do this is by using eye drops (which are also called artificial tears). The eye drops will help to keep your child's eyes from getting scratched. This is important because scratches along the lining of your child's eyes could potentially lead to vision problems. To use the eyes drops: Apply the eye drops to your child's eyes at least four times a day for maximum effect. Check to see if the solution is temperature sensitive. If it is, keep it in the fridge. Mild, non-comedogenic (meaning it doesn't block pores) cleansers and mild baby shampoos can be used to prevent bacteria from accumulating near your child's eyes, leading to irritation and infection. It is best to do this at night to wash away any dirt that accumulated during the day. To clean your child's eyelashes: Step 1: Make sure your child's eyes are kept closed, and get them damp. Right after showering is a great time to do this. Make sure that your child's eyes stay closed. Wash your hands with warm water and soap. Step 2: Put a pea-sized drop of shampoo on your clean index finger. Gently rub the shampoo along your child's eyelashes. Give the eyelashes 40 gentle rubs. Step 3: Rinse off excess shampoo with a washcloth and warm water. Because your child's eyes are more exposed to dirt and bacteria than most other children, it's important to give him as much protection as possible. Sunglasses are the best protection for outside activities, while normal glasses or even eye goggles can be worn when doing activities inside that could potentially get into your child's eyes.
Summary: Keep your child's eyes lubricated. Use baby shampoo to keep your child's eyelashes free of bacteria. Give your child protective eyewear.
