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

I have 8 oz bottles LOADED with hundreds of copepods for $15 per bottle. Shipping is USPS Priority (usually 1-3 day delivery) and is $7 - $14 (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 will ship these out on Tuesday for Wednesday - Friday delivery (depending where you live).

Limited supply available.


Here is some feedback from previous pod sales:

This is a good representation of the visible adults in a sample bottle. There are many more small ones that the camera didn't pickup. A majority of the adults are carrying eggs!

Are the pods you grow totally separated from any fish? And does any water that goes into the pods come from a system with fish?

I am quarantining every fish in copper that will go into my new tank, trying to make sure I never get Ich in the tank.

Just need to know if pods will need quarantined prior to adding to DT.

Great question!
My copepods are grown in mono cultures, separate from my reef system. They contain new saltwater, phytoplankton and copepods only. I also use different equipment for my cultures and my reef system to avoid contamination.
