Interestingly enough, these are the progeny of a sample culture I bought from Sachs Aquaculture over two years ago. As all my other Daphnia crashed ( planned crashes mind you!), these little guys took over in a hurry. Half the size of Pulex, they breed much more prolifically, thus make up for their small size in extensive, fast growing numbers. They are excellent for extremely small newly hatched larvae. They culture best on live protists rather than yeasts or algaes in my experience.
