I'm am toying with the idea of trying my hand in raising some clown fry from my clownfish just to try to challenge myself.

I'm not sure how many system kicking around as I never account them lol.
I do have 12 phytoplankton reactors running with 6 different species off phytoplankton , I do culture Rotifers , 3 species copepods, amphipods and brine shrimps .
My next project is breeding live mysis as I'm working on my mysis system .
To avoid phytoplankton crash u will need to sterilize everything, to/DI water, equpment .
I use pure alcohol to sterilize all my equpment after that washe it with hot tap water , the alcohol will evaporate on 30c temp .
My RO/DI I use ozoneizer for about 5~10 minut before use .
I'm planing on adding uv sterilizer to my RO/DI unite outlet to avoide the ozone.
