I would imagine that nobody sells copepods because there isn't much profit in it. Everyone says they want some but they don't want to pay for them. The problem in "rearing" copepods is the overhead required, tank space, lighting etc etc. Live feed becomes pretty pricey when you are putting all your efforts into it on its own and not just a side product of a bigger business such as a frag farm or something.

I think its just as easy to get some from someone that has a refugium or something to boost your population.
