thought i would update an old thread. I moved the rotifers to 3 gallon tubs that i ordered through florida aquafarms. rotifer culture is still doing great. not the same culture but a culture none the less. tested the SG today and it was at 1.025 in both containers. added ro water and brought it down to 1.020. i will add more RO water tomorrow to lower it a bit more as i have copepods running rampant in both rotifer cultures.
