rotifers and greenwater source?
 
Anybody know where in Vancouver one could pickup a rotifer starter culture and a greenwater starter culture. I already know about the rotifers at JnL.

Many Thanks

i had a sample from a lfs on the vividreef product. i wasn't sure if i was culturing rotifers or baby brine shrimps.

let me know when you find some i'd love to have some too.

re algae and rotifers
 
You can use vivid reef for the rotifers. For the algae and instructions go to Flame Angels Reef http://www.sjwilson.net/reef/. I grow my own algae and should have a fresh batch next week. And ask James at OA.
