Too many copepods

Recommended Posts

My tank seems to be over run with copepods. I know they aren't bad but they are a nuscience to my zoas and and I think they are ugly lol. I want to get a small wrasse I've heard they will eat them. Anyone have any advice? I won't keep the wrasse as the tank is too small. So after he eats his fill I'd return him. What kind of wrasse would be best?

The Yasha you have should be taking care of the ones nearest to its den. Maybe run a HOB or cannister filter if you really want to get rid of them. 

Think they will move to a hob filter with cheato in it perhaps?

 

I might be able to fit one over the back sump area

Was thinking that more powerful filtration would likely suck them out.

Forgot this was for the 365 AIO as well 😞

Ah ha then good news. 

I think so. I can try a hob sump or ac70

 

However I didn't feed the goby since yesterday morning. He was out of his hole i think searching for pods to eat. I hope he's doing that anyway

Pretty sure he has been, is this the one that was hardly seen for a month?

Yes it is. He's been coming out more often now. And today has been the first time he's been out of his hole that far since I got him.
