Raising Brine Shrimp

I am planning on raising brine shrimp the Bottle Method with the airpump at the bottom of a 2L soda bottle. Anyways, thats all done now i need some info on how to raise em because im still confused. Heres what i think i should do:
1: Setup container, get ph up to 8-9, temp in 80's, turn on air
2: buy brine shrimp, get in mail, refrigerate them and put 1 tsp in the "tank"
3: let shrimp grow to good size feedevery 2 days
4: Once the "right" size is aquired they will become shellie food
Everything sound good? Ive got some ideas for food but im not sure whats the easiest?

I don't think it has. As he said he is planning.
You can't forget about adding the salt. I can't remember how much I use though I am sure if you google it you'll find the right proportions. I had posted my setup a while back. It is really not a hard thing to do.

It doesn't look hard, but does it ever end up being a PITA?
I've got plenty of places to put in a farm, but I'm thinking I would only do it a few times a week for a tasty treat for my fish to supplement the dry foods. You know, keep their plumbing working nicely.
