Rise up, Sick together 😉
Live #copepods can endure some stressful times, as long as they stay together and work as a team.

The original culture still going strong(Dec 2023). Some things just take time 😉 #brineshrimp #sustainable #aquaculture #livefishfood
Checking the brine culture tanks, and found multiple generations. 💙 we got a steady production going now! 🙏
Tisbe Squad! 😎

Tigriopus Copepods
No need for a flashlight with these fat tig pods! 💙
The area where I had my macroalgae farm is now being replaced with more racks to grow more copepods, brine shrimp and amphipods. BIG changes coming #2024 💪

How many copepods come in the Mandarin’s Soup? This many…😎
I get asked this question all the time. I do my best to add as many adults (500-120 microns) then topping it off with 1/3 of the blend with nauplii (53-100 microns). I then examine each bottle for density in a dark room. Each copepod reacts differently the light so I’m able to add or subtract species if needed to meet my standards. This blend gets modified based on your feeding needs or your algae battle needs if made aware of.
How many copepods do I need? That depends on your needs and your goals for what you want to get out of them or who you want to feed not based on a chart, which, in my opinion are just made up since it doesn’t calculate a bunch of factors which play into your copepod populations, either being steady or declining based on what system you established. I created a new guide for beginners that’s available on my web store to give you some inside information if you’ve never heard of these micro crustaceans before what they can do for your system and tips are getting them to settle faster!
