Daphnia
A while back I posted about how I was having trouble with my 55 gallon
daphnia tank. I had a humongous growth of green water yet all my daphnia
died. It actually wasn't dead but I could collect 5-10 daphnia for 5
minutes effort once a month. This was a wild daphnia that I had
collected locally. I was wondering if I had introduced a predator. I
never found a predator so I reseeded my tank from the same collection
location. They are now thriving and doing great. Better then it ever has
before. I am wondering though, my first collection was during the
summer, the last during the winter. I am wondering if there are 2
different species at my collection site. The ones that thrive during the
winter may be more suited to life in my aquarium. Just a guess any way.
