Re: Convinced you have the best springtail culture method?
Well of what I've tried this has worked the best for me especially when it comes time to feed the springs out or when I set up a grow out tank (so maybe I just set up my first one.. put it totally worked like a charm)
quarter of an inch layer of charcoal with a small amount of water topped with wet sphagnum.
When I lift up the sphagnum they are EVERYWHERE in the water and on the charcoal and to feed out I just pull out a clump of sphagnum and toss it in the tank. I'll occasionally sprinkle some food in the or even toss in some old veggies (usually mushrooms they LOVE mushrooms). When I set up my grow out I used wet sphagnum then just a little bit of the sphagnum from my culture and they are now every where in there, and let me tell you that is one happy little froglet!
