Slowing Molt, lower Iodine, and the plan of company

[botia]

First -- thank you "eas@ stowers-institute.org" for that MOTE update on
that Growout 2 fire. Glad to read that follow up. Also, the note that
"Daphnia" had been incorrectly spelled, now corrected. On that note,
second, the focus from daphnia to rotifer. The infusoria effort,
like the Atyopsis (one) of Tank Two aquarium, has hit a stable stride
best I can tell. While the oat protein fell well short of replacing
the yeast; the egg yeast combo efforts (three concatenations) yeild
rotifer levels adequate infusoria food for this shrimp. 07IB and 08IB
are loaded with rotifer, some 100-160 per drop.
College has not molted since the thirteenth of July last, and she
appears to be about the same size. The word is some adult males (wood
shrimp) will be available in the U.S. market this fall, and I will
attempt to mate this shrimp at that time.
Present parameters; Tank Two is a 30 gallon tank holding about 25
gallons of fresh water, pH 7.6 and stable. No Iodine added for three
weeks. 25% water change. Carbonate hardness of 2.0 and, water temp
25.5C during the day dropping to 22C during night. Low levels of
nitrate, stable. Daphinia population exhausted. Blood worms
population exhausted. Hydra population small and growing population.
Common water Snails small and stable. Cyclops population small and
stable. Java ferns (4) stable and barely growing. Java moss (four
bunches) stable and barely growing. Amazon swords (2) flora stable
and growing. Lotus (1) flora
stable and rapidly growing. Sagittaria subulata, spreading -- now nine
plants. UnID "I" worms population small and stable. The Atyopsis
moluccensis (College) about is about 5.75 centimeters in length.
"That is all."
