Default Rotifer emergency

Hi there all,

Well, I have a new batch of clowns hatching on Friday night (right now it's wed the 16th), and have just had a complete and catastrophic rotifer crash. If anyone in Calgary has any Rotifers they could sell or trade for an unlimited supply of Percula clowns, please do let me know.

Thanks very much

Jason

Could try setting up brine shrimp hatchery. I think its like 12-18 hrs till the little buggers are ready to eat. I've been trying the in-tank type for a while but haven't had the time check out what its producing. Although all the fry guys I caught and put in my fuge with the hatchery have made it so far.

I don't think larval clowns are large enough to take brine shrimp nuplii.

You might just have to pass on this batch and order in a new culture.
