Amphipods and copepods?

[chadward]

Does anyone know where I might be able to buy some amphioxus and copepods? I just moved my tank and need to reestablish to help my fish out.

Thanks!

Oh I forgot to mention, I'm in queen creek and wanting to find a place reasonably close. Thanks again.

I know Aquatouch sells them but you best bet would be to get so chaeto from an established sump.

I see Amphipods for sale at Aquatouch and Reef Culture. Aquatouch has the best setup for them (and give them bits of macro to live in.. awww happy pods!) I got a batch this week and my fish feasted like pigs.

Both locations also had Live Tigger Pods from Reef Nutrition last time I was in. Bought from both locations and the bottles were nearly 100% live (pricey but nice pods); you can also order Tisbe Pods from ReefCleaners. I plan on culturing some myself eventually, but reseading is what I get them for in the time being.

I see amphipods regularly at aqua touch ( out of your way) and at reef culture ( closer to you). I don't know if the pet shop or reef monsters carries them, that would be closer still. Probably someone close to you has some in their sump they could spare.

Most places in town sell reef stew, and that has some copepods in it...

Thanks guys, yeah. It's a long haul to Aquatouch. I also don't think they get them until Thursday or Friday. Was hoping to find them sooner and a place closer.

Anyone else know of anything closer?

Excellent, I just called reef culture they have different types of copepods and will have amphipods later this afternoon. Thanks for the tip guys!
