Supercharge your saltwater aquarium with our 64oz Jumbo Live Copepod Blend—the ultimate half-gallon powerhouse for serious reefers.
Whether you are maintaining a massive display tank, managing a high-bioload system, or simply want to establish a breeding population that will last, this 64oz dose delivers an extraordinary concentration of live pods to transform your reef ecosystem from the ground up.
What's Inside?
Our premium blend contains a thriving mix of copepod species, including nutrient-dense Tigriopus, Tisbe, and Apocyclops. This multi-species approach ensures that pods populate every niche of your aquarium—from the open water column to deep rock crevices and the sand bed—creating a self-replenishing food web that keeps on giving.
Why Choose Our 64oz Jumbo Dose?
-
The Gold Standard for Picky Eaters: Mandarins, scooter blennies, pipefish, seahorses, and choosy wrasses thrive on these live, wriggling crustaceans. The active swimming motion triggers a natural feeding response that dry and frozen foods simply cannot replicate. With a 64oz supply, you have enough to satisfy even the hungriest fish community.
-
Living Filtration & Clean-Up Crew: These detrivores tirelessly patrol your rockwork and substrate, consuming detritus, uneaten food, and nuisance film algae. They actively process waste, helping to lower nitrate and phosphate levels while keeping your tank sparkling.
-
Coral Nutrition: Many soft and stony corals, as well as anemones and gorgonians, will capture and consume copepods directly from the water column, receiving a boost of essential HUFAs and omega-3 fatty acids that promote vivid coloration and vigorous growth.
-
Seed Your Refugium with Confidence: Pour this jumbo dose directly into your refugium, sump, or main display to instantly establish a robust, breeding population. The sheer volume ensures that enough pods evade predators to settle, breed, and provide a continuous live food supply for months to come.
-
Unbeatable Value for Large Systems: At 64 full ounces, this is the most economical way to dose larger aquariums (100 gallons and up) or multiple tanks. It saves you the hassle of frequent reordering and gives your reef a massive initial boost.
How to Use
-
Temperature Acclimation: Upon arrival, float the sealed container in your sump or display tank for 15 minutes to gently match the water temperature.
-
Dosing: Pour the contents directly into your tank, ideally after the main lights have turned off. This gives the pods a head start to disperse and find shelter in the live rock before fish begin hunting.
-
Ongoing Maintenance: To sustain a thriving pod population—especially in predator-heavy tanks—we recommend supplementing with live phytoplankton, which serves as a food source for your copepod colony.
