You can get it at my house (: I raise it in a gallon jar, a fishbowl, a shoebox, a beanie baby box, whatever. No air, no heat. Sometimes I give them some food. Mine are the SF strain, I think they are tougher than the Utah. I also know someone who got out of killifish and wants to sell a pair of used 2liter hatchery kits, a pair of new backups and half a pound of premium Utah cysts, PM me if you want his info. I don't need it, got enough. He says you should have backups of the 2 liter hatcher base since after a while the airline attachment snaps.

I mainly feed my brine shrimp greenwater, grown in another jar sorta near a strip light. If you want culture starts I can bring them to the next meeting. There are copepods in the cultures that appear to eat cyano, a bonus. But they are so tiny that most of my fish don't bother eating them.
