![]() So far I started culturing nannochloropsis phytoplankton indoors using the petri dish method inwhich will be used to add directly to my saltwater tank that is at 1.024
I added a little less then 1/4 cup of rodi water that was boiled in the microwave for 1 min then I let it cool to room temp and added it to the petri dish then placed it under 2 normal output plant light's for 24 hours where do I go from here? I read that I should use the q-tip and add the entire dish to 1 liter of water under a gentle rolling boil and leave for 12-24 hours my question is do I add this to fresh water or saltwater? because ultimately I want the culture to be saltwater @ 1.020 ppm and should I give the algae a break for a time period between adding the dish that was being lit for 24 hours to be lit in the 1L with flow for 16 hours? I'll have more question's as I go Last edited by phyto4life; 02-09-2010 at 08:34 PM. |
