keydiver Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Hi all, I'm sure many of you have seen my Phytoplankton thread up, and I now have enough pods to offer out as well. This culture has been going for well over a month now without any harvesting, and the densities are getting very high. Species: Tisbe (True tropical pods that will breed in live rock, the kind your mandarins eat) Price: $20 shipped for a half liter, $30 shipped for one liter, $40 shipped for two liters. Compare the prices with a half liter for nearly $30 not including shipping from live aquaria, or $15 not including shipping for 8 oz (34 oz to a liter) from algaegen. If you wanted to start a culture of your own copepods, consider buying some phyto from me as well to save on shipping costs. Why buy from me as opposed to an online retailer? 1. These cultures are tenderly loved by me and I can guarantee a massive population of pods in each batch, at all life stages (Perfect for feeding, seeding, or starting your own culture) 2. You're helping support my education through book costs and living expenses for my Marine Biology studies here at the University of Florida. 3. These pods have been absolutely gut loaded with live phytoplankton to ensure their nutrition for your fish (Some pods are shipped out without any phyto in the water and by the time they get to your fish, they have no nutritional value). 4. ITS CHEAPER! Please PM me or comment if you have any questions about the product or about culturing pods in general and I'll be happy to help. Thanks in Advanced. Getting pictures of the cultures is difficult as I do not have a camera aside from my iPhone at my disposal. However, I can assure you that you will not be disappointed with the quality of the cultures. Link to comment

keydiver Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 Bump! UF is freaking expensive! thanks for the bumpity! They get you with every charge you could imagine. I get charged monthly for having my 8g pico in the dorms. Even with 100% bright futures it's tough to get tuition in on time. Not here to buy, but Go Gators Not this season... I think I might need some Hey Ben! If you're serious, shoot me a PM and we can talk details. I see we're not far from each other. Link to comment

keydiver Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 When you get down here will you be selling pods local? I'll be building some systems to eventually put out 10-20g of pods every other week (Of course most will be munched by larval fish at the lab). They'll take a couple weeks to plumb and get set up but then I'm going to take them for a spin before moving them up to gaineville Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Got mine today. Couldn't see any that were moving around on the bottle, but the water was tinted green with phyto, so I'll report back in a few weeks on how many bazillions and bazillions I have coating the tank Thanks Tim!

kenfai Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Got mine today as well as a bottle of live phyto. Great deal and an incredibly nice and helpful guy. Can't wait til I have a thriving culture of my own. Thanks! Link to comment
ETucc Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Is this still going on? I don't have any livestock that need pods, but it couldn't hurt to diversify the organisms in mytank, can it? Link to comment
stevethao Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I'm also interested in this. Any left? Link to comment
