bourbon is an unknown quantity at this point
phyto/rotifer question

ok watched all Rob's videos and read all the posts I think but still have a couple of questions.

1. my phyto isn't as dark green as rob's in his videos and I'm leaving 7 days between splits - why? salinity off??

2. how do I start the rotifer culture, have the glass vial of salt water rotifer from florida aqua farm - don't think it came with instructions.

3. wondering if anyone has thought of this procedure for phyto - keep 6 or so going all the time, take 1 bottle every other day, filter it, use half of it on tank and top it up with culture water and put at end of line. In a couple of days use the next one in line (oldest) and so on so you don't have to refrigerate, always using from fresh sample.

4. do you really have to wash out bottles for phyto every time??
