been wanting to do this for a while... run down from initial start for various species. Nannochloropsis is a basic algae and a steadfast staple, think of it as the rotifer of the algal world. in any case here come the pics!!! First I started out with some FAF or florida aqua farms discs, two erlinmeyer flasks, some cotton swabs, my 1.020 water, and my medium (micro algae grow from FAF... or Guillards medium).
