About:
This rotifer strain is one of the most important live feed items in the food chain. Used all over the world in production nurseries, fish and invertebrate farms.Used for culturing and raising saltwater animals such as Corals, vertebrate and invertabrate larvae of all kinds of species, fish and shrimp, crustaceans, etc.
In the past few years, our nursery as well as other nurseries have started to provide and make available this valuable step in the food chain to hobbiest as well as smaller scale breeding operations.
Benefits:
Using rotifers as live food for home aquariums will provide a very nessesary link in the food chain in your miniature ecosystem at home that we call aquariums. This in turn will allow you to have a more balanced aquarium habitat because you will be introducing microfauna into your system. These rotifers are in the 150 - 350 um size which creates the crucial link between single cell algae and larger zooplankton in your tank, like different species of copepods, amphipods, and shrimp. We, as hobbiest are starting to become aware of the difference between feeding dead food such as frozen or freeze dried, as opposed to feeding live organisms to our pets. It is a lot more beneficial to introduce a live organism as food such as copepods or rotifers and live unicellular algae, mysid shrimps etc., because they will stay alive and maybe even reproduce in your system if conditions are right. So live foods tend to enhance your ecosystem instead of adding decaying matter. That's why traditionally, we try not to overfeed dead food into our tanks because all the excess that does not get found and consumed, will basically just decay/rot and pollute the pristine water conditions that we are trying to achieve with all our eternal water changes etc...
From a small hatchery operation's point of view, obtaining your live cultures from us will free up valuable time spent developing your own. We believe that we have developed a cost effective solution for supplying you with the healthiest, most nutritious zooplankton cultures. The lowest shipping cost for the most density available on the market.
Uses:
Our rotifers can be used to feed most types of corals, newly hatched fish fry and larvae, Seahorse fry and  copepods and amphipods. You will notice an immediate reaction from your corals if they have never been fed live zooplankton in your aquarium. They will open up and stick out tentacles that they hardly ever showed before. Their soft bodies will puff out to 3 to 4 times their size. Its just amazing to watch their reaction. After 3 to 4 weeks their colors will become more vibrant.
Culture:
We grow our rotifers with 3 kinds of algae. Also we feed them a solution of omega 3 fatty acids, HUFA, Marine lipids, various vitamins (C,B12)etc... and trace elements. Rotifers can be grown with many different feeds, they will adapt and eat all kinds of food like yeast. But it is important for us as a nursery to grow our rotifers with the best possible combination of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Because as the saying goes, "You are what you eat".  So your rotifers will only be as good as what you feed them. These elements will translate over to the animals that you are feeding the rotifers to, thus allowing your corals and fish to receive a highly, balanced, nutritional diet. We use these rotifers in our own aquaculture development. The Cultures you recieve are garanteed pathogen free.

You will notice in the pictures that I show the rotifers in water without algae, and the picture is taken with no magnification, so you can see what you will be getting, even though they are in the microscopic size range. You can't see details with the naked eye but since these rotifers are adult size you can see them in a swarm, because of the high density that we package them.
We harvest your rotifers the morning of shipment to ensure you get the freshest possible culture. They are packed in live Nannochloropsus and Tetraselmis algae.
