| Methodologies |
| Feeding Tactics/Medium: |
The culture is kept continually green/brown with live phyto, often pretty "dark." I use motile algae that seem to settle less (Tetraselmis or Isochrysis) and usually only need to add phyto once or twice over a month, or after water change/harvest.
|
| Split Cycle: |
Perhaps once a month, but no set schedule. When the population looks dense enough I harvest by siphoning them out, then replace the water I removed with sterilized ASW
|
| Split Yield: |
Not measured, but the Florida Aqua Farm sieve is usually quite covered with them crawling all over it.
|
| Number of Cultures: |
3
|
| Number of Splits:< |
Not counted, at least 5
|
| Density: |
Not counted
|
| Harvest Methodology: |
When the population looks dense enough (or when I need some) I harvest by siphoning them out, then replace the water I removed with sterilized ASW
|
| Adjustments Made: |
I switched from tall containers with limited surface area to wider containers with more surface area since these cultures are not aerated.
