 | Rotifera? |
Theresa_M        Moderator Queen of Zoom Posts: 3649 Kudos: 4280 Votes: 790 Registered: 04-Jan-2004    | I received a small container of Azoo 9 in 1 Artifical Rotifera. The label states 'for egg-breeding fry and invertebrates'. What exactly is this stuff? Is it something that can be fed regularly or just as a once-in-a-while treat? ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean |

Rotifers are actually diminutive enough to be appropriate food for newly hatched saltwater fish larvae. They could probably be used as food for filter-feeding invertebrates, such as certain shrimp, crabs, and sessile inverts. Did somebody just send you this stuff out of the blue? Sort of like a product demo? Wish I could be so lucky.  |
