Looking to reseed my non existing pod count (amphipods mainly but any others are welcome) and just wanted to see where everyone buys theirs.
 
Thanks. I've considered them as well as reef cleaners too.
 
I get mine in this tide pool in the Long Island Sound.

I was at my boat for a little while tomorrow but I didn't collect any pods. My wife is in the hospital and I go there for most of the day but of course I picked a hospital that is on the way to my boat. I mean, you got to have priorities.She will be fine and will be operated on tomorrow. There are grass shrimp at the marina and I am sure amphipods and copepods. Hopefully, next week when my life calms down and if my wife is feeling much better I will go out to the tide pool and do some collecting as my tank depends on these infusions to stay healthy. I have heard that a few people live inland with no access to the sea. But I never believed that rumor.
