Default Live Daphnia

Anyone here can advise where can I buy live daphnia? I lived in Yishun.
And if I throw the whole bag of live daphnia into my 10gallon planted tank, will there be any issue?
Thanks!

So far in SG I only 1 place to get live daphnia aka "boon" and it is at Yishun block 618 "That Aquarium". Best to give them a call to check for stock or reserve 1 pack if they do.

Best to add the live daphnia slowly as there might be other stuff inside like worms, mosquitoes larvae or dragonfly nymph which will devastate your tank. So far they last about 2-3 days in my planted tank which have about 90+ fish living inside. Do not expect them to last long as they need green water(single cell algae) as a food source.

quite a few places you can get boon in sg..

personally I prefer to get from OTF ... located at 63 pasir ris farmway 3.
very nice and friendly uncle and auntie.
call to book your own boon as their stock very fast run out.
