Neon Gobies

surfzone · 04-23-2008, 11:17 PM

Today I received a mated pair of neon gobies. I had a ten gallon ready for them and I filled it up with pvc and a little sand. The pair are a tank raised pair and i understand that they breed quite quickly so I also wanted to have a few questions answered to if y'all don't mine.
Where is the best place to get rotifers?
Which is better to use live phyto, or concentrated phyto?
What is the best way to collect rotifers for larval feeding?

Thanks.

Can't you get them through the store? You work in one of Charlestons biggest lfs. I am surprised Brian cannot supply them.
Here is a place on line. quick Google search:
YCT, Pseudokirchneriella (Selenastrum), Artemia Cysts, and Saltwater Rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis)

Fish Update:

These two fish seem to be adjusting well to the tank they are eating mysis and are spending a lot of time together shearing the same cave.
