If you already have some rotifers you should be able to culture them. They say baby clown fry take up to 500 rotifers a day EACH!!!! So if you are to be successful which I HAVENT ( 5 days at the most this time) you need to be culturing your own. I bought 2 servibngs at mt LFS (Aquatic Tech) and Greg printed out a paper on how to culture them. You need Dt's and rotifer food to keep them alive and double the water every 3 days. Let me know if this helps or I can fax you the paper on how to get it started.

The fish breeding forum here on RC has a ton of good info. The sticky has great articles on culturing just about any live food you can think of.

I have a small culture you can have if you want to pick it up. I am near the big mall in Strongsville and Tropical Aquarium in Brunswick is not far from here.
