Default where to buy large sized Mysis?

hey,

just stopped at the LFS and it looks like the PE mysis are now smaller in size.

i actually like the bigger sized pieces better cuz i have a couple larger fish.
anyone seen where i can pick up the packs with the larger pieces?

thanks!

It's been a while since I looked, but King Ed used to have them.

I believe that PE mysis have varying sizes throughout the year, part of the natural state of their growth.
I guess to keep them all the same size they would have to only harvest at the time of year they are a specific size.
I've noticed for years that they go through that kind of difference.

Hi Shao,
If your interested in larger plankton I also have the Superba which are more the size of a small Peppermint Shrimp.
Cheers,
Tim
