    What do you think is the key for successful moina breeding

    Moina breeding is not always successful. I recently found out that light is necessary if you want to breed it well. I use LED light about 16 hour a day.And feed them dry yeast and spirulina mix powder. Is there any tips for moina breeding? I would appreciate it if you would share it here.

    Thinking About Culturing Scuds

    Any advice here? Pros and cons? From the bit I have read they seem like a decent live food for small and medium fish. I have a spare 10 gallon tank that I am growing hornwort and algae in, thought about using it for live foods and scuds look like a nice option.

    Dwarf/Pygmy Puffer

    I have 3 dwarf puffers and I have never really kept puffers before. I am aware that they eat snails and frozen food rather than pellets and flake food etc. If I don't have many snails in my tank do I need to buy live food/snails for them? Any advice would be useful, Thanks

    Gammarus?

    Can I raise Gammarus or some other live food off the back of a ten gallon in a 3 gallon container? They would be food for Guppies, Least Killifish, and maybe a Betta.
