I'd be interested in giving it a shot. Anyone want to get together a group buy? Worth a shot.

Do they ship internationally? I see they have free shipping on the 4 pack.

I'd be interested in a 'group buy'.

But why not go to OceanPods diretly? www.oceanpods.com

Looks like they sell to the public, pretty much the same price $25/bottle.

They are a little closer to BC, being in Wa, as compared to OK.

Another copepod source - this one is Canadian.

Been debating an order here myself, figure by the time you factor in duty, shipping and the exchange rates, the price is comprable.

Holy smokes, $45 for 75-100 pods!! Best case, that's 22 cents each.
Ah,... not for me.

Is that the volume expecations out of OceanPods as well? 75-100 pods?
I was thinking the bottle would be swimming with pods.

Maybe I am not that interested,....or maybe not that rich.

75 to 100 pods would multiply pretty quickly under the right conditions. I do agree though, it does seem like a lot of money.

It is expensive thats why I haven't gotten any for the dwarf seahorse tank, as I will eventually.

If people in Alberta do a group order from either source, I'm interested.
If not - no big deal.

I've seen these before.....but why couldn't you culture them somehow, like you do with other cultures for fish? (grindal worms, etc).
