DTs Phytoplankton for me...I've never considered culturing my own...lots of folks do...:thinking:

Is thi required to maintain Pods? All mine died off and I was told it was because i didnt feed them phytoplankton?

nope not required.........i use something called bioplankton.....they have a website and the stuff is alot easier to store and use than DT's...more $ but last longer and seems to be loved by my clams....they also make a coralplankton that has cyclopeeze which in my view is a revolution the marine hobby...

I just purchased the coralplankton. Anyone have success with this product? Back to the original post - I really like DT's.

I have currently started to grow my own plankton which i have started with my leftover DT's...I would like to hear some of your theories on making the plankton

DT's wont work, DT's plankton contains 4 strains of plankton species, they will kill each other you need to start with a single celled disk that can be bought online
sorry.
