So i have been very busy lately and had completely forgot about opening the lid on one of my springtail cultures for a single day and opened it this morning and they were all dead

Its a good thing i have a small culture going that i just happened to start a week or so ago for my CR Auratus froglets.

Bummer, I hate when that happens! You should check out the .3 micron filters I talk about in my culturing thread. Using them would prevent that. http://www.dendroboard.com/forum/food-feeding/66991-how-culture-isopods-woodlice-springtails.html

It was only one day you didn't open the lid and they are all dead? I sometimes go weeks with out opening the lids and they are all alive and booming

I did the exact same thing with my large spring culture. It was doing really well too. I'll try the micron filters next time.
