Hiya, anyone in the UK know where I could get fry food around 50 microns? Perhaps baby Rotifers? Or would I need to buy and filter? Thanks

You will need to filter them, as they need to be live to entice the young to feed, and even the youngest/smallest of rotifers are bigger than 50 microns. Parvocalanus crassirostris first stage nauplii are basically the only feeders you can get on the market at this point that are that small (and you need to culture the adults and filter the nauplii out to use for feeding).
