i could check into it for ya but shipping cost might be the price of starter culture and pump. Plus if i send a unmarked bottle of green substance to ottawa these days i might get shot for terrorism lmao

@Themaddhatter wont have rotifers till i got 2 carboys rolling as they take alot of phyto themselves so gotta make sure i have enough or i will run out and lose everything.

@Sewerat sorry buddy i got your text but wasnt home from work till 10:30pm has been crazy insane lately.

To anyone wondering i am right smack dab in the middle of cambridge so everything will be pickup only unless im already coming your way. Just pm me for info and give me a bit i do work alot lol. Once i figure out all the shipping dates and costs ill be able to ship to members but not yet.

Phyto will be $5 for a water bottle full (is very concentrated so be careful)
And brine depends how much you want but again are only freshly hatched not raised but great for fry just let me know how much you need so i can add extra the day before you come.... i cant have my seahorses starve :)
