Copepods

[joker577]

Does anyone see any problems with adding copepods to a tank? I was gonna buy 200 to add to my 75 gallon because I know they're food to many different creatures...

Go for it. Do it with the lights off. Put them in your sump/ref also.

I mean I've always heard you can never have too many and they don't hurt

Make sure whoever you buy it from actually puts 200+ in the bag. I got into a dispute with a large on line only store over a empty bag of pods that they insisted were in there. They said I didn't know what to look for. Brought to mind the old Monti Python Dead Parrot routine. Took a big war with charge-back to get refunded.

Get them from Oceanpods.com

Adelaide is really nice and I think she's a sponsor on here as well...

Add them. They are very beneficial to a reef. Add some rubble piles so they can hide from fish and reproduce. If you have a fuge add half in there and half in the display.
