Methodologies |
Feeding Tactics/Medium: |
saltwater, with food: couple drops of rotigrow+ OR Nannoclorpsis paste (glycerin free) with the occasional drop of Iso paste.
|
Split Cycle: |
Harvest as needed, always keeping back a bit to have a back up. splitting is inconsistent as it is based on how many I have available at the time.
|
Split Yield: |
No consistent numbers, although I can usually harvest nauplii for feeding if I have them available... if nothing else I just split and grow the stock culture.
|
Number of Cultures: |
3
|
Number of Splits:< |
handful of times, nothing precise... very inconsistent.
|
Density: |
1-2 individuals per mL
|
Harvest Methodology: |
Harvest as needed, always keeping back a bit to have a back up. splitting is inconsistent as it is based on how many I have available at the time. Run entire culture through set of sieves (from BSD) and remove the size range I want to harvest- return the rest to the culture bucket (usually use this time to feed as well).
|
Adjustments Made: |
I typically feed 1-1.5mL of nanno paste **glycerin free** from BSD and 0.5-1mL of T. Iso paste from BSD and I do that once every few weeks. I only top off water with DI once every few weeks as well and really they have to be pretty evaporated to get any attention. So in general- low to no adjustments made.
