Hi Guys,

Just got the Copepods today from copepods.ca. I will be seeding my tank today in a few hours and will post results in a week or so for whoever was interested and wanted to know how it went.

Thanks

Need something like this in Edmonton, as I'm looking to seed my tank for my mandarin.

Chaner888 12-08-2016 09:27 AM

I ordered it online. I will let you know how it goes. Right now too early to tell. But I do have one Mandarin and 2 Clowns. I will try to post pics and let who ever is interested how it goes.

No not on Facebook. I will see how this progresses and at take the leap since we can order online.

Will do!

I would hold off guys. Been 2 weeks and I haven't seen nothing. I emailed him today asking how long it would take to start seeing a substantial amount of pods. Please hold off I don't want to see anyone wasting their money. Ill be sure to keep you posted.

Thanks for the update! I was eager to order but I appreciate your honest feedback. Please let me know how things progress, hope you see some action soon.

Neil at marine experience has a seeding product.

I used that but I would still like a good phyto product.

Has anyone ever tried the copepod, or phyto from Pisces?

That's $5 cheaper then big al's...

mseepman 02-15-2017 12:24 AM

Any update on this?

Chaner888 02-17-2017 01:51 PM

I wasn't happy with it honestly. I spent a lot of money on it. I think if you are ordering locally and can pick it up would be better. I read reviews of local pick up but saw noting on shipping. So I took a chance (Money Lost). I would buy from Concept.

DKoKoMan 02-17-2017 04:58 PM

Thanks for your honest feedback!

Skimmer Juice 02-17-2017 06:10 PM

Was looking at the site but it seemed really expensive IMO , I will keep getting them from concepts you get a good amount for $15

lpsreefer 02-22-2017 08:50 PM

Concept gets them in every Wednesday. They do go fast though.

DKoKoMan 02-23-2017 02:03 AM

Right now i have been supplementing my mandarins diet on 2 bottles of Copepods that I get from Big Al's on Fridays. Once I transition in to the 150g I will seed my refugium with a variety of Copepods and Rotifiers. Unless we can cut the shipping costs down the online purchase is not reasonable IMHO.

Chaner888 03-26-2017 08:10 PM

I have just trained my Mandarin to take Brine Shrimp. I just soak the brine shrimp in aminos and garlic extract and she's very happy and fat now. The brand I used was Hikari. I had some brine shrimp from another store and it was too big for her. She just kept spitting it out. Been through 3 packages of Hikari now.
