Anyone near Springfield, VA. area has a starter culture of green water or knows a place locally that I can get some? I'm trying my hand on starting my greenwater a boost to a raise daphnia or at lease giving it a try and see if I can be successful. Thanks.

The classic way to make green water is to take a lettuce leaf and crush and then place it in a quart or more of water. Then place the jar or tank in direct sunlight in a window or outdoors for a week. The other classic way is to set a 10 gallon tank or larger with a couple of goldfish preferably outside and feed the fish as you normally would. You will have green water within a week or two.
