I flood the culture with some water to float all of the springtails. I pour off the excess water (and springtails) into the tank.

I then add fresh food, wait about a week and do it again.

I have 4 cultures going and every 2nd day I can siphon off one too feed my young frogs that are too small to take flies.

This works well for me. I have sustained a single culture this way for over a year.
