I am setting up a refugium and was wandering if you could feed copepods reef roids. Thanks in advance!
I would recommend just feeding phyto and in-between your feedings they will scavenge for detritus and nuisance algae.

We feed our copepods phytoplankton. Our Phyto-Feast contains 6 different species and is a great food source for these animals.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks for posting your question in the Aquarium Nutrition forum!

Best,
Chad

Can you ? Yes but it should be used as a supplement say like once a week and not a main food source
