Hi . I'm going to do a video on breeding copepods soon. And fresh water fleas can be bred very easy also. Daphnia is just one of the families within the freshwater crustacean order of Cladocera. Hope that helps.Mark
Hey Mark, I have got a ton of 2 week old zoe's that I have in a 10g aquarium with a few small pieces of macro algae, and tons of phytoplankton. The water is very green. I knew I had some copepods and\or rotifers in there as well, but in looking at the tank today, I see there has been a massive population explosion of the copepods and it seems to me, not nearly as many zoe's as I should have in there. There is PLENTY of food in there, but my concern is, is it possible that the copepods would kill and\or eat the amanos? I'm in a panic about this and I can't find information about zoes and copepods anywhere.... halps!
@@MARKSAQUATICS ok will do, thank you! I've separated out (as best as i can) a couple dozen zoe's for now. I do think I have plenty of algae & phytoplankton for them all to eat, but I'm still a bit of a novice.... thank you so much for replying to me!
MARK'S AQUATICS thanks mate! Wasnt sure how to proceed....the info on amanos on the internets a bit all over the place, i have 3 big females that berry regularly. ..and the hatch rates really good..seemed a shame for them all to die each time...
Ha, ha... there is a typo on the phytoplankton bag. 'Phytoplanton'?😃
I can't wait to see how this project turns out!
Epic stuff, going to try and breed some myself!
Sir, did u hatchet eggs in saltwater? Or just freshwater with dead coral can help the parameters the water?
The eggs hatch in fresh water then they transferred to salt water tank.
I already have a bowl filled with saltwater, can i add the phytoplankton already or shall i wait untill i put the babies in it?
Excellent stuff. I'd like to see how you breed Copepods....do people breed the freshwater equivalent?
Best

Maybe the pods and rotifers are out competing the shrimp fry. Also check your nitrate levels.

How many Salt do you use?
Hi Mark! How many tanks do you have now?
Six all together.But remember! There's always room for one more tank!!
What happened with this project? is it successful?
Where can I get all of these items?
Most aquarium shops that have a marine section should sell them. If not ebay .
Not any close to me unless I drive 2hrs away.
You can order it all off ebay .
Oof watching you touch the chaeto scared me because of bristle worms

Hi Mark, a question if i may!.what temperature do you raise the larve in? AND is a pump/filter 100% needed? LOVE your channel btw mate!
