Copepods/Amphipods?

[MAGE_GrymN]

Does any one sell copepods or amphipods?
I used to have at least three different types of copepods in my 20-gallon, but when I broke it down I lost everything except some big bristle worms...

Elegant Reef had some last week

Salty Fish sells Pods as well. I forgot the name but they come in a pouch with some chaeto as well. I used them to seed my tank with rotifers and they are loving it in my huge fuge!

Cool! Thanks, guys... The only store I've been going to is Alamo Aquatics and I don't think they have any there.

You local. Find Josh Avila. He sales and he is local. Can't beat his prices and quantity.

Hey guys I'm Josh. I breed pods and have strict bio security measurements. Let me know what pods you're looking for. Right now I have tisbe pods ready to go and rotifers although not pods. Tisbe pods are coming but will not be at the density that I like. I'd be careful with alagen for pods as they have been know to send pods that are mixed and will actually out compete the food source of the pods they are sending. Reef nutrition is great though.

Anyways since I breed you get healthy gut loaded and four times as much for the same price.

What is your price on your pods? Can you PM me?

I'll speak to the pros of Josh's pods. I don't just use them for food, but for my CUC as well. So with that being stated. What are you wanting them to do? CUC pods and rotifers are great. But even better as a food source. Now if you only want them for a cleaning crew. I'd look at amphipods. Those beggars are some of the best members of the CUC!!

Dont get me wrong, buy pods from Josh!!! You can't beat the quality and or the amount for the price!!! Just making sure you know what you need before you buy something that might not benefit you as much as you were expecting. Cause then you might not be happy and that wouldn't be Josh's fault!

Thx!!

I should have mentioned I did send a PM to Justin. I have rotifers at 5 and gallons at 25. Also have pods as cheap as 20

Here in a sample of the density of pods from a single bottle. These are tigger pods

Right now I mainly want them for the CUC, but I don't mind if my fish eat them. I really wanted the smaller ones (Tisbe), but Tiggers would be cool too.

I'm now looking for the tiny benthic copepods. I'd like a sample of some sand where they live.
