A fellow gave me a starter of Daphnia + a couple of snails, which he keeps
in big tubs outdoors. Right now I have mine in a tupperware bowl in the house near a window, eventually I'll probably move them to a bucket. He suggested sprinkling some fish food into the container and that the Daphnia would live off the things that eat the decomposing food. I did. I also tossed in a couple of leaves because I read they will eat bacteria that break down the leaves. Each week I top off the water. They are making babies like crazy so I guess they are happy. I've thought of keeping some in the house, perhaps in a small tank with plants. Any suggestions on caring for these things? -- Mac Cool |
