Where to buy DT's and frozen Cyclopeeze

[mdcoblentz]

Is there anyplace on the web that I might be able to get these two things? I've seen freeze dried cyclopeeze too... is this just as good as the frozen stuff? I'm also looking for some pickling lime that I can start dosing into my tank. If anyone has any suggestions on where I could get these things I would be very thankful. I've checked at my lfs but they don't have either stuff. Heck I didn't even see any phytoplankton available in the whole store... Again... thanks for anyone that replies.

Dr. Foster's has them. They also carry Liquid Life which is amazing

It's a bit of a drive from Greenville, but Premium Aquatics in Indy has both (shipping should be reasonable if you're not up for a road trip). Gerbers and Marine Solutions in the Dayton area carry frozen cyclopeeze (usually -- call first).

I've heard the freeze dried is OK if you soak it first -- otherwise it floats and ends up in the overflow. I use the frozen and love it (or at least the fish love it, so I'm happy).

Pickling lime is easiest to find during canning season, when it's available in most hardware and grocery stores. I got mine at Meijer, then saw it at Kroger and True Value. Look where they keep the Ball canning jars.

Here's some links that might be useful:
