My (current) pico is tiny. My eventual nano will still be pretty small. I need very tiny critters for my CUC, and obviously in a pretty small number. I've been disheartened to find that multiple sites have order minimums that I can't hit even if I try (as I just don't need that much and anything I could top off with - like fancy macros - are out of stock).

Which vendors are best for tiny crews? The diatoms have taken hold, and a few other nasty species of algae are starting up so time is of the essence.

My LFS has had some ongoing problems with bagging the wrong animals and even empty shells so I'm reluctant to try them again.
