Abstract
Kreisels with circular flow patterns have always been the best types of housing for developing and planktonic forms.
We have developed at NCSU, using a two gallon aquarium, small beta tank and filter with spraybar, a kreisel that individuals
can put together (with no tools except a hacksaw) for about $60.00. We have maintained small Ctenophores, Cnidarians and
other invertebrates for as long or longer than our $800.00 to 1200.00 larger commercial kreisels. Now everyone can have a
small Ctenophore with iridescent combs (ctenes) feeding in their classroom.
Keywords: marine aquarium set-up, zooplankton
