How is it that foam is formed on the surface of culture?

The formation of foam is the sign of an organic overload. This is often due to too much feeding compared to the number of daphnids present. It is necessary to change a large volume (at least 50%) of the crop and / or to reduce the quantity of food delivered.

Daphnia concentration decreases, although I feed the crop, what should I do?

Either you do not feed your culture enough, or you feed too much. If your water clears between 2 feedings, it is likely that you are in the first situation. In this case, you just need to gradually increase the amount of food delivered to the crop. If the water does not clear between 2 feeds, the amount of food delivered may be too large compared to the number of daphnids present. In this case, all microalgae can not be consumed in 24-48H. As a result, the ammonia level is increased, resulting in a decrease in the population size of daphnia. It is necessary to act quickly and to change a large volume of the culture (min 50%) and / or to decrease the quantity of food delivered.

How much daphnids should I give to the fish ?

We recommend 100 daphnia / day / adult fish. For more details, refer to our summary of the nutritional plan.

Are the only daphnids enough to feed the fish?

We recommend a GEMMA Micro dry food supplement in addition to the daphnids. For more details, refer to our summary of the nutritional plan.

From which stage can I feed the fish with daphnia?

Daphnids serve as vital nutritional input essential to zebrafish from 60 days. For more details, refer to our summary of the nutritional plan.

How much microalgae should I give to the daphnids?

The required amount of microalgae to be delivered daily to daphnids depends on the type of microalgae and the amount of rotifers to be harvested. Refer to the following table for more details:

 

  ml of microalgae Add of CloramX (gr)
RG complete 2 0
ROTIGROW Plus 0,7 0,2

Quantity of microalgae (RG complete or ROTIGROW Plus) and CloramX to be brought every day to a crop of daphnia to harvest 1 thousand.
