Help, Need Rotifers!

Ryan7 · #1 03-06-2009, 10:22 PM

I order rotifer cysts online and they have not come yet. My clowns laid eggs last night.

I need to get a rotifer culture up before they hatch, can anyone give/sell me a cup of their culture (or egg cysts) in case mine don't arrive on time?

Vancouver, BC

Thanks,

Have you had sukcess raising clowns before? If so I'm wondering if you might be able to help me out.

I have not raised clowns before, but have done lots of research, some with successful breeders.

I have kept rotifer and brine cultures before.

What kind of clowns do you have?

Percula (sp) they breed every 8 days and I can't take careon the fry so maby I could bring them to you a day before they hatch and see if you have any luck.

I sent a PM to kercheznee, Neither JL or Wendell have anything.

Someone else has agreed to lend me some egg cysts, but would much rather a scoop of a started culture if there's one around?

kercheznee has agreed to give me a scoop

Thanks everyone.
