Donna,TJay,

Are those erectus babies? If so, I have some enriched hatched baby brine that may still be good if you want it. Let me know and I'll check to be sure they are still viable.

No, they are Reidi's!

I need rotifers... but thanks anyway!

I have nO IDEA where to get some...*quickly.* :(

Have any ideas??
 
Are you going to the meeting tonight? If not, and if someone has some that they can bring, I can pick them up for you and you can get them from me (near Preston/Belt Line). Surely SOMEONE has some roti's...
 
That would be awesome!!

UNLESS someone wants to take them off our hands that have more experience...???

Just don't want them to die!
 
Try PM'ing and/or e-mail'ing Angela (Orchidsnfish) she MIGHT have some going right now, although you'd hafta drive out to Paris to pick any up, but it's worth a shot...
 
If anyone has live roti's, please bring some to the meeting and find me - I'll take them back to North Dallas for water`bug to pick up...
 
Thank yall sooo much!!

They are the cutest little guys!

I caught about 10 now, put them in a comtainer and put them in the refuge to maintain water temp.

I have to admit... when I looked in the tank and saw *one baby*... I thought it was poop floating around... until I realized I had turned off the pumps for feeding and the poop was swimming around! lol

I immediately looked at the male, saw his pouch was still a bit swollen... so I didn't double guess it until I saw many more free swimming.

they are so darn precious! :)
 
I have to pick up TJay from work. If anyone needs to reach me... my number is 985-969-1535.

Thanks!

How far is Paris from Plano?? :) said:
Keep in mind, I don't even know that she has any she could spare, but I think she had a culture of Rotifers going to feed the Clownfish spawn she's been raising, and worth a shot...

Paris is roughly 90 miles from Plano... It's north east of here, just south of the Oklahoma border, about halfway to Arkansas...

Yeah I have rots...lots of them. Have three cultures going at the moment. I could also get you started with some phyto to feed the rots to feed the babies. I do live in Paris though but they are yours if you want them..as long as I get first dibs on buying some babies when you become a successful breeder... :D I'd love to be in your shoes right now. I cant wait to raise horses.

We have some freeze-dried rotifers from brineshrimpdirect.com. Not sure if those would tide you over until you get live, but you are welcome to come pick some up. We also have some live baby brine that you could try. We're in Allen the next town north of Plano.
