Screening day- Arrived at 8:30am, geared up to screen through the larvae. Grace worked the screening table, Olivia managed the buckets and whatnot, I counted and re-stocked larvae, and Katie took video and images. Finished at ~2:00pm. Things went very smoothly and we got a good routine down. Here are snap-shots of the data:

After restocking, all buckets were fed 700mL algae cocktail of: 1/4 Tet, 1/4 609, 1/2 Chagra.

Images: using my phone & the new cell phone adapter, Katie imaged and observed activity. Images were taken using my phone. Here are her notes:

I fixed all screened larvae with Lugols and stored in fridge for size imaging (under the scope with the scale) at a later date.

Collected new larvae, counted, sampled, and stocked:

• HL-6 Ambient
• HL-10 Low
• K-6 Ambient
• SN-6 Low B
• NF-6 Low A

Other activities:

• Arrival inspection:
  • All buckets very clear, likely have been without food for several hours.
  • It appears the dripper was left out of NF-10 Ambient B since Saturday. Air stone was still in there; no apparent mortalities.
  • Aeration was not sufficiently high on the west side of the larval table (mostly on K & HL groups).
  • Temperature in the whole system has dropped to ~16degC, possibly due to it being pretty cold outside…?
• Rinsed all larval catchment buckets
• Checked on the upwelling tank outside; it is holding at 17degC
• Gigas:
  • Grace & Olivia cleaned, inspected for morts (none)
  • Grace measured and adjusted flow rate to set a 1.2L/min per side
  • I increased temp 1degC; temp was reading 15degC, so I set heater to 16degC
  • Installed aquarium pump in header tank, fed with 490mL Reeds Shellfish Diet, and set dosing pump to 57
