Feeding Phytoplankton

[connorsbala]

Okay,ill be getting some a bottle of live phytoplanknton off ebay, to feed my hithchiker corals anda featherdusters. Now, i was wondering if you just suck some up with a pipette and feed it to the inverts or whatever or do you have to do it in a special way? Just keep them in the fridge too?

i turn off my skimmer, underdose (1 drop per 2 gallons) every day. Im only feeding 1 easy to care for filter feeder (feather duster) so i dont dose at a recommended amount since i dont want to raise my DOC too fast too high. Skimmer comes back on after 2 hours. Also try and culture your own since they are quite expensive.
