Rotifers
What is a Rotifer?
Rotifers are found all around the world. Most commonly found in freshwater, some species have also adapted to life in brackish and saltwater or even moist locations on land. In these environments they can be planktonic, sessile. The species we culture (L-type) are euryhaline, meaning they can live in a wide range of salinities, making them suitable for use in your reef.
