Plankton Culture Equipment & Supplies

When it comes to raising larval marine organisms, plankton culture becomes of primary importance. If you can't supply live food cultures consistantly, and in sufficient quantities, it's unlikely you'll succeed in raising larval fish or invertebrates. Some of these live foods, phytoplankton, copepods, rotifers, and artemia, can also be useful in supplying nutrition to your reef.
We intend to build up this section into a useful resource for those of you interested in raising your own live foods.
Live phytoplankton is already listed under nutrition, DT's phytoplankton can be used to start off your own phyto cultures.
Other strains of phytoplankton plus live rotifers are available to special order, usually with a lead time of 2 - 3 weeks. Please e-mail us for more details.
