Description
Our Home Culture System is designed for live zooplankton such as copepods and rotifers are essential first-feeds for many larvae of many fish (for example, Seahorses, Sea Dragons, Clownfish). The Aquatic Live Food’s Home Culture System (HCS) will allow hobbyists a home-scale culture of zooplankton which is easy and reliable.
The HCS combines a conveniently-sized 20L bucket with custom-made fittings that incorporate an air stone and a particulate waste trap. Aeration provides oxygenation and water circulation that draws particulate wastes into the waste trap (floss).
Weekly maintenance of the culture (aside from feeding and harvesting) requires only 5 minutes to flush the wastes from the trap and wiping the interior surfaces of the bucket. The HCS is sturdy and easily transported, and includes a flexible cover that isolates the culture from contamination.

• 1 x 20L Food Grade Bucket
