Looking for copepods......

[funkyseamonkey]

I have an 80 gallon reef tank. I have a large mandrin goby that I have had for a while. She occasionally eats live brine but mostly eats the copepods she finds in the live rock of the tank. She seems to look a little thinner lately so I would like to add a bunch of copepods to the tank to make sure she has plenty of food. If anyone has Any that I could buy or knows where I can get some will you please let me know? Also once i get some does anybody have any good ways for me to keep them going? Im working on getting a sump for my tank as opposed to hang on filters and I know once I have a sump I should be able to keep them breeding in there.
Thanks,
Sarah
sorry if this is posted in the wrong place.

need the sump so you can have a refugium...another way though is to pick up a used duo bio filter and strip all the media out...replace with live rock rubble and make sure it's covered (dark) and pods will multiply in there and occassionally go over the falls and feed your mandarin. :)

You could always setup a 5 gallon "cope" tank to grow them and then just add to your display tank when you want to feed. something simple with air, rubble, etc.... pretty cheap to setup a cope tank
