I am cultivating Tisbe biminiensis, Cyclopoid Dioithona, Tigriopus californicus and Apocyclops in four different 5-gallon jars (this kind, but not exactly the same). My ammonia is creeping up (up to 2.3 ppm, which I understand is OK for the copepods but prevents them from multiplying), which I...

So, I've got a question, about phyto and pods. I know they are beneficial for the tank, but also food for fish and corals. And I'm wondering, how does it work, should I culture them in my DT (no sump) or should I have separate containers for them, and dose them as needed? If you could link any...

I am adding 4 16 oz live copepod jars to my 75-gallon reef tank, it is a month old going through the ugly stage. There is a lot of algae for them to eat but I was wondering if i feed Brightwell Aquatics Reef Blizzard-A will that feed the copepods as well for the future as the algae reduces? It...
