I guess you could. Just add the salt and use a sponge filter with some bubble walls. Do you just want to toss the eggs into the aquarium that is housing the fish that will eat the brine? I have never tried to hatch brine without salt. It might work, it might not work.
You can put them in the tank and they will hatch if you provide the right salt solution. You don't need aeration, but it helps make more hatch than would otherwise. Heat and light also help.
First, you'd need to buy some patience. Five posts in an hour won't get you responses any faster. This patience, once bought, will help you in hatching brine shrimp too, as hatch times vary depending on conditions. www.brineshrimpdirect.com for all info. They have decent prices too.
Don't quintriple post!
Put the eggs in a small container with salt. Oxygen circulation will increase the ratio of eggs hatched.
