These don’t share water with fish right? Just trying to see if they are 100% parasite free ie no chance of velvet ich etc.

Good question! My copepods are grown as monocultures with only fresh mixed saltwater, copepods and live nannochloropsis phytoplankton. The cultures are completely separate from my reef system so there is no chance of introducing diseases or pests.

Perfect, that’s exactly what I wanted to hear lol. Sorry I couldn’t go through 40+ pages for the answer.
