Ideas for isolating parvocalanus?

I think you’ll have to start over. There’s no way to be able to seperate by species using sieves. Only different sizes of animal. I always do that too. I just let what species of pod just take over. It’s near to impossible to maintain isolated cultures, especially at home. Make sure that you use good isolation techniques like keep cultures away from each other, plastic curtains, etc. I raise pods and rotifers for breeding fish and shrimp. Most of the time it doesn’t really matter if it’s contaminated.
