Re: Daphnia "eggs" (was LFD V2 #382



Hello David,

Who sells Daphnia "eggs"?

If they mean Daphnia ephippia (black, flat ovals, about 1-2 mm long)
then, depending on species, they have to go through several thaw-freeze
cycles to hatch. It's quite a job!

Why don't you just buy a starter culture? No muss, no fuss!

Best,

George
