My fellow researcher and advisor have decide to try fresh water golden apple snails. We are researching best choices for alternative food source, preferable fresh water choices. A paper we obtained that stated gold apple snails were high in nutrients.
The primary food alternative will be FW crayfish, and golden apple snails as the secondary source.
We are still awaiting some more equipiment to arrive for the lab to be completed. Once our fiberglassing gets done, we will plump it and start cycling the system preparing for the otcos.
As the research starts, I may start a thread about our results.
