Methodologies |
Feeding Tactics/Medium: |
1ml of rotigreennanno and 1ml of chloramX daily, water is maintained at 1.018 salinity. On 2/9/12 I switched from the rotigreen nanno to rotigrow plus.

Split Cycle: |
I split simply by pouring half out of an established culture into a new bucket and then add fresh made saltwater made to 1.018 salinity, I do this every couple weeks
|
Split Yield: |
unknown, I don't have a microscope to count
|
Number of Cultures: |
two
|
Number of Splits:< |
several splits dating back to 5/28/11
|
Density: |
unkown
|
Harvest Methodology: |
scoop out three quarts every couple days and drain it through a filter to harvest. syphon out of bucket leaving the bottom debree and put in a clean bucket every couple weeks.
|
Adjustments Made: |
The temp naturally changes as the season has changed, the temp started in the mid 60s and is now down the the mid to low 50s since its now February. I just switched this past week from the rotigreen nanno to rotigrow plus, this is in hopes of a better rotifer for the fry. I have also moved one of my cultures up to the main level of the house so that it is warmer. I was worried that since its getting so cold in the basement they might both crash and leave me with no rotifers.
