Just wondering the salinity of the water should be as it is not stated on the website? between 1.023 to 1.025?? Maybe it will be good to add that in the website :)


Step 1:
Prepare saltwater - a big volume prepared at once then stored will work best. It gives the mix time to settle (newly mix salt water is less homogenous and may affect rotifer cultures, if new mix is used. Let it stand for at least 8 hours)

Day1, just got it updated :)

Salinity level should be as close to your tank as possible, thus within the range of 1.021*-1.025*

Thanks..
