Wow! Cool stuff! If you'd like to write an article on how you set this up and what it does, let me know as I can get it published in our articles section. :-)
 
No that's ok, I just thought lemon had a better setup then me, but I'd be more than happy to write something up on how to set ask that up
 
Day 1 - Setup Tiger pod culture. Using phyto-feast for their food temporarily. I used way too much phyto.

Day 2 - started up a culture of nanno phyto. Added a better light

Day 12 - Switched things up to culture larger quantities. (Need to add 2 more 3 gallon dispensers) Copepod population EXPLODING!! Tons of juvenile pods.

Where did you find the 3g containers? I've been looking everywhere for those!
 
Cool! I would love to have a video and photo tutorial for R2R on how to culture phyto, pods, etc. for our users.
