Where can I get amphipods?

[GothFishKeeper]

Anyone know where I can get amphipods online? I have a pygmy waspfish and I wanna get a steady colony of them in my larger system before moving him there from my nano, but I wanna make sure they’re aquacultured and idk where I can find that. TSA has been out of stock for months now.

They definitely look promising but it says “coming soon” on the amphipods despite there already being customer reviews. Am I looking at the wrong page?

Probably just between batches. I've bought from them multiple times with good results.

Thanks everyone! I was going to buy from rusalty because they had large packs of amphipods available, but I came across this thread and decided not to do it:

I managed to get ahold of the last two 15 packs from reefbysteele so I’ll just put them in my refugium and feed them until they populate more.

If you live near to the sea
Turn the rocks over and there will be amphipods as many as you want for free
I have been doing this the last 3 years not a problem
