Hey Guys,

I am planning on seeding (4) 125 Gallon Systems. Would One gallon be enough to get the job done?

I would probably recommend two gallons...that's a lot of large tanks!

I don't want to seem like I'm trying to upsell you. Given time, you could certainly create a self sustaining population with one gallon split between those four tanks. It will just take quite a bit longer.

Okay, thanks! I have a lot of tanks no question about it. These are my observation tanks after the QT process that I do for folks that buy from us. I will see if I am able to swing it, I think it would be well worth it. Do you know if Pods can live through Formalin treatments? I know that is a very odd question...

I'm so sorry for the delay in answering you!! We had Aquashella that weekend and I intended to do research into this, and just dropped the ball. I did some research this morning and I honestly don't know. I read that formalin-treated copepods are used to feed to seahorses to improve seahorse survival rate. I'm not sure if those formalin-treated pods are dead or alive at the time of feeding though!
