I've got daphnia cultures going and was thinking of starting and selling some more cultures.

Before I go to the trouble, I'm wondering if anyone would be interested?

I might be up for it, if the price is right :) I never had daphnia culture before, so not sure how difficult it is to try keep/maintain them, but I'd give it a try to supplement my fish's diet...
