## Overview

Carolina Moina Culture offers a premium live Daphnid species, half the size of Daphnia pulex, cultivated on freshwater algae to provide an optimal, sustainable food source for freshwater larval fish. Designed for educational settings, each culture supports up to 30 students, making it ideal for classrooms and research labs. With over 95 years of trusted experience, Carolina Biological ensures quality, ethical sourcing, and comprehensive instructional support to elevate hands-on aquatic studies.

## Description

Moina is in the Daphnid family but much smaller than Daphnia pulex (approximately half the maximum length). Because of its small size, it makes an excellent live food for freshwater larval-stage fish. Cultured on freshwater algae. Intended for grades 9 through college for a class of 30 students.

Review: Moina - This is my third or fourth time ordering from you guys and the Moina came alive and they were all different sizes which was nice. I’d say 90% of them were alive and super active. For the price it was all worth it. Super fast shipping and the instructions were easy to understand. You definitely get quality stuff from them.
Review: Great culture! - They arrived a little early but I had their har set up set it was ok. They all look happy and healthy and I haven’t spotted a single dead one. On the desertcart listing it doesnt say what you get besides the monia, you also get a dropper, monia culture kit (it says you get materials that you do not get so you don’t have to look for them in the box, that’s ok though because thought materials were not listed on the desertcart listing), online resources link and QR code and how to observe the monia in a lab setting.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for fish and experiments
*by J***Y on April 12, 2025*

Fast shipping! I was lucky to be home when it arrived. Packaging is worth the shipping cost and comes with information on the live product. I bought this for my fish and for a fun project. I would buy again knowing that it’s a mono culture without any extra surprises. I feed brewers yeast and aquarium bacteria without any problems. Fast growing culture, very happy.
