Also, Do you have a source for S or SS Strain rotifers?

Larry,
I will look into it and let you know what I find. You also might be interested in a new product we received from one of our coral suppliers. The divers drag a plankton net behind the boat and collect live zooplankton which is condensed from approximately 100 cubic meters of seawater into a 180 ml bottle. it is then frozen and arrives with our coral shipments. It's very interesting stuff. You can see many different critters when you pour it into the tank. Small fish devour it and I'm told that there is much microscopic zooplankton in there as well. it must be kept in the fridge after it's thawed and lasts about a week.
Regards,
Alan

Oceanic,
That copperband is yours. It is healthy as a horse and eating all kinds of food. It's nice to see that fish going to a tank where he will thrive. And the red monti frag isn't going anywhere so when you are ready I will snap a piece off. After all the frags you have given me, it's the least I can do!
I will let you know when the other strains of phyto arrive, you might want to add another type to experiment with.
P.S the rotifers are multiplying so fast I can't feed them all!
Regards,
Alan
