I just need to get a good starter culture of pods and then I'll make more in my labI dose the tank with both. I have a thing for fish that have extremely high metabolisms. Mandarins, wrasses, anthias. They need to eat really frequently. Pods help.
How much you have ready to sell? My Cheato Algae needs a good cleaning
clams (filter feeders as you mentioned), inverts, etcPhytoplankton is used for feeding rotifers, copepods,ampapods and feeding filter feeding corals and other corals as well
Looking awesomeFiltered out my 3 pod cultures and put them in their new vessel.
Added TIsbe pods to the other vessel.
Picking up 3 more vessels for phyto, brine shrimp and mysis.
The wait is on.
The green tint is wat darker than it looks in person...still lighter than my last pod culture
thanksLooking awesome
Where did you get them containers? I would love to have some for my rotifers as well as making my own phyto.. im spending a bundle on RG complete to feed these things.
Nice and thanks for the link.. how did you run the air line?
I find exactly the opposite, i find culturing my pods together with rotifers gives better results for myself. The culture has been going for almost 2 years and works great.
I got the tip for doing the two together from a guy who cultures pods commercially.
Looking awesome
You can do it either wayWhen I want to start the cultivation do I need to get the dish full of the phyto or can I just grab some phytoplankton from the store and cultivate from that?
You are correct, I had a long Friday and wasn't even thinking about that. I should of had some coffee before I answered him.Not all store bought phyto's are live. "Phyto-Feast" for example, by Reef Nutrition cannot be used to start a culture. Most store bought phyto's are blends I think.

Nano would be the best, let me get you a link or you can get some from meWhat would be the best phyto to start off with? Aren't there like three different types?
