So I have a breeding pair of clownfish, and I recently purchased all I need, I think, from Reef Nutrition to keep a rotifer culture going.
On the Reed Mariculture site, it says to harvest 20-30% of the rotifers daily, by volume...
My questions are:
1) Am I harvesting rotifers to keep the population young or to manage ammonia?
2) If I’m doing it to manage the population, do I need to change out the water if I’m harvesting to feed the Fry? (I have a zooplankton catcher)
3) I bought Reef Nutrition’s “Roti Clean” filter, and when i add the phyto, my water gets cleaned in 12-14 hours... Is it filtering too much and should i switch to a standpipe/just hang the rotifer floss?
Thanks in advance!
