The pool that yielded so many mosquito larvae last year is full of daphnia. If you would like some and you're a club member and our schedule match up you're more then welcome to come get some to try and start your own culture.

They lay so many eggs its rediculous. When they get too populated in my culture. They all lay eggs at once like black pepper all on surface. I'm 100% sure yu cant get rid of them if you ever had them haha. Not complaining though I love culturing them that I got from Les. And my fish love them more.

I could use some more Les, I believe I crashed the culture you gifted me - as its all mosquito larvae now. The fish loved the food so much I think I just overharvested.

Unfortunately once I add my fish to my ponds the daphnia are held down in numbers that i cant harvest anymore. Early spring is always the best time to get a culture from me

Did yu notice they were black in the rear abdomen? They laid lots of eggs if they were. They stay at the surface and on the sides of the tub. I can give you some more to start again, I dont know how many I can get but I have a culture going from les also.
