I need pods, mysis, bugs, etc.

[H@rry]

The second round of red bug treatment will take place tomorrow and Wednesday. From what I'm seeing after the first round all the bugs will probably be gone. In about a week or 10 days I'll be in the market for some "starter packs". Anybody got any suggestions?

PS. NO RED BUGS OR FLAT WORMS!

Hey Harry!
Florida Pets where we did the group buy had a good selection and shipping to this area was cheaper.You canget Tiger Pods at Johns(CRA) also.

I have some rotifers, mysis and copepods I can donate to your tank. I am low on amphipods so I don't know if I can catch any of them. Maybe someone else may be able to catch some from their fuge.

We put a bottle of Tigger Pods in the tanks one time and never saw another one so I'm pretty skeptical of them.

I'd appreciate your donation Tomoko, maybe at the swap.

Okie dokie.

H@rry, I can ship you a bag of chaeto out of my sump its got stuff crawlin all in it. I could also scoop you a cup of sand from the fuge, it should have plenty of creepy crawly bugs in it. If you want let me know. I have no idea how to catch just the pods but when the lights go on in the sump area they run everywhere. If you can tell me how to catch up just the pods then I can try that for you. Let me know I owe you one anyway.

Tim - thanx but I will still be treating the tanks Wednesday. I need to wait probably 10 days before putting any crustaceans in again.

Allen - that sounds like a good deal. Let's wait a while and I'll get back with you.

 

[Nitroq2]

Deal just let me know when and I will arrange to ship, I can probably send it standard mail as close as we are and it get tehre the next day. I scooped a small cup of sand/mud (I have the fuge with miracle mud mixed in) and when the mud cleared there was lots of small pods running around dont ask me what kind. Also I have those small micro stars in there you may or may not get those, but thought I better tell you. The just hang out on the sand and rocks though, I have never had an issue with them.

 

[H@rry]

Are you going to Nashville on the 20th?

 

[Nitroq2]

I doubt it, but I don't mind shipping it to you. I can throw in a heat pack, they should be fine I would think.

I'm in the same boat you are as far as the red bugs and number of treatments. But when I asked the kids in the SPS forum about how many treatments to do, they all said 3 or more. So I am mixing up 40g of saltwater right now. I already went through one Reef Crystals 160g bucket. You may want to consider a third.
