Hello to all,
I have been culturing copepods for a while now, and I am currently using 1 gallon containers, so far it has been hit and miss with the cultures. I now would like to upgrade to a 10 gallon glass tank (the ones from petco for $10) Has anyone here done that? any advice or guidance you can give?
My plan is to use regular tube, going into a PEX pipe that is the length of the tank, and have holes in the pipe every inch or so. I will be using Polycarp greenhouse panels as lids ( cheapest lid ever!) and that's about it. I do use T-Iso and Tetra as feed as that seems to work the best ( unless you all have a better way, I am open to suggestions)
I will be using old aquarium lights on a daylight schedule just to help them with breeding (I think that helps anyway).
Please and thank you
