From Indah water ponds. Daphnia is not so good cos they tend to suck blood from babies. Also, Daphnia is difficult to digest ( it got a small hard shell).

Need to go to the pond around 5-6am to scoop those fella up everyday. (Buying will be too expensive due to huge comsumption)

Sounds like hard work? of cos, but the joy you get by seeing those beautiful babies growing up, every sweat and blood are worth it!

And you can cultivate it by feeding it activated yeast and organic matters (rotten food, vegi, leaves, green water, bullshit, chicken drop, human dung, etc)

Each moina female will carry 2 eggs and multiple every 1.5 to 2 days. and they'll lay 4-6 times of eggs in their whole lifespan.

Best you send me your e-mail address and I'll forward you a pdf file on this moina thingie which i found online. Very useful.
