so I made the newby mistake of put a mandarin into my 3 month old Biocube. I have been buying copapods to feed while also starting a copapods culture. Th culture is starting to take off. I know there are different types of zooplankton benthic and pelagic. I have several pieces of foam on the culture tank to provide places for the rotifers to hide. My question is what is the best way to harvest i.e. transfer these critters to my dt?
 
put the sponge in the dt. keep changing sponges back and forth.
 
BTW, ya gotta check out PaulB here on the board. Google him search here whatever. every good trick in the world. easy brine shrimp methods too. and get that little guy on frozen too.
