Lost a culture yesterday. I have no idea how this happened but my tetraselmis got contaminated with rotifers. They decimated the tetra. I put it under a microscope and saw a bunch of egg carrying females swimming around. Ran the culture through a rotifer sieve and found a ton of rotifers in the vessel
The inferno lost it color, its mouth gaped, and it went into hiding for 3 weeks. A couple days ago I went in after it and transferred it to the new tank. That’s all it took and it finally split
Alright! The tank is on an up swing. Pieces are coloring up but at the end of the day I lost the psycho holiday, battle corals piece, Malaysia, my joleene, red planet, yellow highlighter acro, and the vivid confetti. On the bright side, I still have over 30 other frags that are doing great.
