Re: [GSAS-Member] Live Food



I just keep them outside in those big plastic tubs with rope handles....or
wading pools. I don't have TONS of critters right now, but maybe enough
for you to get a culture going. I've kept daphnia overwinter in the
utility room with a light strip over a 5 gallon bucket before. The
copepods seems to be mostly Cyclops right now....and those may not be good
for larvae. I know they can be predators, but maybe the larvae are too
big. I know my adult Darios eat the Cyclops.
