It's very cheap to buy rotifer cysts from FAF and it gets shipped in the mail.
As a side note, I've quit using phyto to grow rotifers because they consume so much and I needed the space for other things.
I still grow phyto for my seahorse rearing containers and for growing brine shrimp for their first two weeks however.
Instead, I use Algamac Protein Plus powder, or if I'm out of that, I use spirulina powder, mixed in a blender and stored in a pop bottle for adding small amounts 3X a day to the rot containers.
I have to clean the container about every 5 or 6 days, but it's a lot better than growing all the extra phyto I needed for them previously.
Also, to add the live phyto I always had to siphon off existing water prior to the addition.
