Thread: Copepods?

  1. #1

    Default Copepods?

    Well today I check my water parameters and ammonia and nitrite are 0. Which for me is really cool being this is my first saltwater tank. But what made me run tests is there are hundred of little white dots moving everywhere in my tank. I though it was little water bubbles but they swam around and are all along the walls. I plan to get fish in the tank August 1st but I just wanted to check and see that these are copepods and not something else.
    Tank = 55gal
    sump = 35 gal
    10 pounds live rock down in sump
    60 pounds of live rock up top.

    Yep, sounds like them to me. Look like little bugs stuck on the glass?

    Sounds like you're off to a terrific start.

    Does anyone live South West of San Antonio that can spare some Chaeto for this dude's tank?
