I have an all in one tank & I feel like its hard to keep copepods. Theyre probably so tiny, but I never see them on my glass. I get worried about my mandarin, even though it likes frozen food. I've tried cultivating my own copepods, but some reason I always fail lol. I can do pyhtoplankton super easy.
Anyway, i looked into hatching my own brine shrimp. I bought supplies from aquarium co op. I started my first batch Friday night and woke up sunday morning to harvest. I definetly hatched wayyyyy more than I needed. I must of dumped 100s if not 1000's of them into the tank. Im worried about the ammonia spikes if they dont eat all of them, but boy did the mandarin go crazy.
Anyway, if you're thinking about hatching your own brine shrimp the device above works great
