ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for harvesting and cleaning brine shrimp eggs on the open water is disclosed in one presently preferred embodiment of the present invention as comprising a buoyant support frame having a collection assembly operably disposed in relation thereto. A concentration member provides a means for collecting a naturally occurring mixture of brine shrimp eggs and debris floating at or near the surface of a body of water. The concentration member provides means for concentrating the mixture of brine shrimp eggs and debris into a concentrated egg/debris mud mixture having a general thickness of about 7.5 cm to 45 cm (3 inches to 18 inches). Engageably disposed in relation to the collection assembly, an extraction apparatus provides a means for transporting the concentrated egg/debris mud mixture introduced into the collection assembly to a filtering/cleaning apparatus. The filtering/cleaning apparatus operatively separates the brine shrimp eggs from the concentrated egg/debris mud mixture by means of a moving filter screen, thus producing "clean" brine shrimp eggs. The separated brine shrimp eggs are preferably passed through a dewatering system and delivered to one or more porous container bags by means of a delivery system disposed between the filtering/cleaning apparatus and at least one porous container bag.
