How big is your tank and do you have a sump? I used one of the rocks from the sump of my 40 gallon to seed my 14 gallon. A month later there are tons of pods all over the glass of the 14 gallon, I don't have any fish to eat them in there.

Thanks my only issue is its hard to trust places like that but I'll look into it thank you. Sounds like a good deal.

I have a 100g and a 16g both have refugiums. I just need to repopulate since I added a couple of fish that survive on copepods. I want to be on the safe side and make sure they don't starve.

They sell live pods at Pasadena Tropical Fish and always have them in stock I think for about $20. I would hook you up with one of my rocks but it sounds like you need more than that.

I already have pods in my tank but I seen a decline and I just added fish that eat Copepods. Do it just a way to not worry and possible check in a few months again to see if it populated

Do they sell them in bottles? Or they have them in tanks?
