Copepods FS - $15

[hollback]

I culture copepods for my system and prefer feeding them over flake or frozen. Every few months my staggered cultures sync and produce more than I need and I need to clear them out!

I have 8 oz bottles LOADED with hundreds of adult copepods for $15 per bottle. Shipping is USPS Priority (usually 1-2 day delivery) and is $6 - $12 (actual shipping cost) depending on your location. Please pm me how many bottles you would like, your address/ZIP and I will calculate shipping cost and give you my paypal address. Copepods will live in the bottles for 5-7 days. No need for breathable bags or expensive, overnight shipping.

I'd love to ship these out on Monday for Wednesday delivery before it gets too hot to ship.

Limited supply available.

Anymore interest? I can ship these out tomorrow!

how many are in a bottle? high level estimate is perfect.

 

[hollback]

I would guess 300-600 adults? For every adult I would say there are 3-10 juveniles. If you look at the zoomed in photo above you can see the larger red adults. The specs are the juveniles but there are a lot more you would need magnification to see. So thousands total? I hope that helps.

I bought 2 of these bottles of pods at the LEAR swap. They are definitely worth every penny. The bottle was full of swimming pods. Great seller!

Thanks for the generous plug! I'm glad you were happy.

 

[MatteZ]

I am interested as well. I just hope I see the post when you say they are ready

Looks like I will have three or four extra bottles. I just changed out my cultures so this will be it for a bit. I can ship out tomorrow. PM my your ZIP and I will calculate shipping.

Thanks!

Do you have a write up anywhere of how you do your cultures? If not you should

 

[anizato]

I wish I had read this earlier in the morning, as I just placed an order for pods and would have rather helped a hobbyist.

Anyway, I want to breed and culture pods, any tips or advice? I have a 1 gal glass jar, but am willing to go a little bigger (up to 2.5gal). What do you recommend?

Thank you.

Sorry guys, waiting on some payments before all are accounted for. I don't want to make any promises to more people until I know what is spoken for. I will update soon.

No problem at all! I'm all about spreading the love. No secrets here. I have had my cultures set up like Frank's article since 2004.
