Most of us have the standard copepods, and the Gammarid amphipods, but do you have Caprellid Amphipods?
Here is a good article on them:

Anyway, it is on some brown Gracilaria that is kind of ugly so we will give you enough to seed your refugium with these guys when you the order the one penny algae sample, just leave us a note in the comments field. My seahorse and pipefish love them, as does my fry puffer. Look like little stick figures, very different.
