Sponge filters are good, they don't weigh much and don't die in transit 
:) I am going to step up the live foods and offer them. Marine 
greenwater and rotifers are a goal but I need a microscope to verify 
they are at sellable density. Know any good scope shops? was hoping for 
a low priced digital, ha ha. No such thing exists as far as I can tell, 
except the Intel digital blue which does not have the resolution I want.
