Live copepods for sale
Copepods, or pods, are tiny crustaceans that live in your rock, sand and refugium. Our live copepods for sale help you seed a new tank or top up an established one.
Why reefers add copepods
Pods are a natural food for many fish. Mandarin dragonets, for example, eat little else. Pods also eat detritus and algae, so they help keep the tank clean.
To help them breed, feed them phytoplankton. Also give them a refugium with macro algae to hide in.
Common questions
When should I add copepods?
Add them after the tank has cycled, ideally with the lights off. That lets them find hiding spots before fish notice them.
