general zooplankton question's

["Umm fish?"]

Are microscopic pod's that are hard to see/not seen with the eye are these beneficial to a reef tank in large amount's?

is there a name for these pod's?

or are these just bigger pod's seen with the naked eye later as they grow and microscopic pod's don't exist?would

Umm, I don't actually understand your questions here. Could you re-phrase them, please?

do mysid's normaly stay close to the gravel surface but in the water and swimm very fast in and out of rock work?

Yes.

I did dose alot of phyto this what they might eat?

That seems likely, but they eat crushed fish food too.

If I culture them is the fact they eat there young is this what make's it hard to culture or is it water volume?

The cannibalism is the problem with getting high densities.

how often do mysid's adult's need to be taken out/seperated?

would just a screen work for seperating them by filtering the culture through it?

Nitokra lacustris
