live mysis?

[spiceycat]

Where are the the best LFS's in CT. to get live mysis?

Are there any? Live mysis are usually a speciality item that needs to be ordered online. I'm not from CT, but thought I'd mention that; unless you live in an unusual area (you could), I wouldn't expect to find them at a fish store.

Live mysids (saltwater) are available from seahorsesource.com but you can get large orders from MBL Aquaculture.MBL Aquaculture

There is a small FS in Old Saybrook, Guppies to Puppies that has them. You need to call ahead however as they do not have them everyday.

If you're going to use them long term, you may want to culture them yourself.

Thanks for suggestions.

Nix Guppies to Puppies -- they are only offering BRINE Shrimp.

My reef system is hopping with mysids; I don't see many in my seahorse system, but I've re-engineered my refugium so I'll hopefully see more in the future. I think a massive refugium with LR and macroalgae would be a great supplemental food source (and also a nice nitrate sink)

thanks for the sites. Especially Seahorsesource.com. Again thank you. I was looking for a better site than Seahorse.com
