Title: Daphnia cage
Post by: saltydog on May 21, 2003, 07:49:04 AM
I would like to hang a fine mesh cage in my outdoor aquarium to culture daphnia & to control green water (algae suspended in the water). Does anyone know whether one is available commercially?
If so, where might I purchase it?

If anyone has experience in building one I would be interested to know what mesh to use & where I might obtain it.

Thanks!

I have heard of people using a fine fishnet. Let the daphia keep the water clean - then when they get too big, let a few out to feed the fish :)
