Do you mean infusoria? Great for feeding brine/fairy shrimp and for really tiny fry. Can grow it a number of ways. From soaking brown leaf litter and plant matter in direct sunlight for a week to using a potato.
Decapsulated brine can be food for many fry - along with various powdered forms of food. Spirulina powder, brine powder, vinegar eels, microworms, powdered egg yolk.
Your best bet, in my opinion, is to have a few different fry foods on-hand and use them all.
Yes, that's right! I copied the term off of another site and apparently that person did not know how to spell it either.:icon_conf
Thanks, that info helps. I am taking this slowly and trying to get all the info I can before I try. I have 6 CPD's, 3 males and 3 females. They are just getting old enought to color up real good.
My CPDs breed like crazy. I feed the fry microworms and powdered foods such as the Shirmp Lab's WakaEbi (baby shrimp food) or Repashy's Crab Cusine. They also did well with powedered earth worm that made myself from flake.
Kool! Thanks for all the advice. I need to get a small breeding tank set up. But on another note I have 2 guppies (1M/1F) in the tank with them and today I saw a baby guppy. Just one, but I have a forest of Giant Red Rotala (Rotala Macrandra) lining the back wall and there may be more. I am so excited!!! :bounce:
Same here. I only feed them microworms and they thrieve.
