Product Description
Product Description
Tisbe copepods are a must-have live feed for reef tanks. Perfect for picky eaters with small mouths—such as seahorses, pipefish, mandarin gobies, scooter blennies and butterflyfish—these pods are easily digestible and packed with essential nutrition.
Why Tisbe Pods?
Nutrient-Rich: Tisbe pods are loaded with essential lipids, including EFAs (Essential Fatty Acids), DHA, and EPA—vital for healthy growth, coloration, and stress resistance in marine fish.
Wide Size Range: From tiny 55 µm nauplii to adults over 180 µm, they’re ideal for a variety of reef tank inhabitants—from coral feeders to small fish.
Reef Tank Safe: Naturally occurring in reef environments, Tisbe pods help establish a balanced ecosystem by populating refugiums and feeding micro predators.
Each bottle comes pre-packed with food to ensure the copepods stay healthy and reproducing until they are introduced to your aquarium.
Directions for Use
- Storage: Keep at room temperature.
- Acclimation: Float the sealed bottle in your tank for 30 minutes to match water temperature.
- Release: Gently swirl the bottle to stir the copepods, then pour into the sump/refugium or divide between the sump and main tank.
- Best Time to Add: Introduce at night. Turn off pumps and wave makers for 20 minutes post-introduction to allow the pods to settle.
