Live Rotifer Cultures

Live cultures of the marine rotifer Brachionus plicatillis are an excellent food source for larval fish and invertebrates. Easy to culture, they are about one-half the size of Artemia nauplii and can be fed live microalgae or a dry rotifer diet. They are packed at a density of 5–10/ml and are available in quart and gallon sizes. Shipped Next Day Air (freight not included in price). Although temperature fluctuations during transit are not generally a problem, live arrival is not guaranteed. For a good source of information, see Plankton Culture Manual.

Note: $50 minimum order.
