I’m considering adding some live small crustaceans such as daphnia and copepods to my planted tank, primarily as a live food source for my livestock.
I wondered if there’s any benefits or drawbacks to adding these to a planted tank that I’m unaware of? I tried to find information but couldn’t find much. I thought they might work as a food source that stays fresh (I.e. alive) if we are away for a while and if they’re successful I could breed/culture them outside the tank for regular feeding.
I’m anlso interested in worms or very small invertebrates which may also work.
