## Overview

Reef Nutrition Pods Live Copepods Food offers a concentrated 6 oz supply of vibrant Tigriopus californicus copepods, known for their enticing erratic swimming and rapid reproduction. Cultured using a proprietary, bio-secure method and fed nutrient-dense marine microalgae, these pods are ideal for feeding delicate fish species like Mandarin dragonets and seahorses, while also supporting refugium restocking and propagation in diverse reef tank environments.

## Description

Because Tigger-Pods (Tigriopus californicus copepods) swim upwards with a stimulating, jerky motion, they are attractive to a wide range of fish like Mandarin dragonets, Seahorses and Pipefish. They are easy to culture and perfect for propagation or restocking refugia. They breed rapidly, producing scores of eggs per female. You won't find any higher quality pods. Tigger-Pods are cultured at Reef Nutrition using a proprietary, meticulous, and bio-secure process by the world leader in the development of algae- and zooplankton-based feeds. Your tank will get a big healthy boost because Tigger-Pods are fed on Reef Nutrition Phyto-Feast—nutritious marine microalgae raised on site. Contrary to what some say, Tigger-Pods will thrive in your warm reef tank. In fact, warmer water revs up their metabolism and reproductive rate. They will do well in cool water too. Our bottles are the most concentrated on the market, giving your tank more quality pods per dose for your money. Storage: We recommend that you add Tigger-Pods the day you receive them. If you need to hold them before adding, simply pop the cap and put them in the fridge for a few days. Receiving your Tigger-Pods: Upon arrival, you may notice the Tigger-Pods aren't very active. This is normal when cold shipped or cold stored. As the bottles warm up, the Tigger-Pods will become more active. It is not uncommon to have a few of the oldest copepods to die from old age. We pack the bottle with life stages above 300 microns, so the bottle will be full of juveniles and egg-bearing females. On average, we add at least 10% more in every bottle to account for any DOA. Each bottle contains approximately 3,000 copepods. Acclimation: Open bottle cap and remove the inside liner, if there is one. Let the bottle stand at room temp for 2 hours to allow the temperature to rise. The Tigger-Pods can be poured directly into y

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Coping with Copepods
*by H***  on August 7, 2023*

I bought these for my mandarin goby as an extra source of food and evidently he loves them because he is so robust and colorful. Maybe, some of the other saltwater fish are enjoying them too!

### ⭐ Not alive when delivered
*by C***A on March 25, 2025*

Was not what promised! Everything was Dead. No stars

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I buy these locally
*by A***R on July 16, 2021*

First off I buy these locally and they are always alive, the amount of pods in these is crazy and my mandarin loves them. I tried to go to Algae Barn and really for the money since I had always bought these, I felt like I was getting scammed by Algae Barn, either I got 300 pods from Algae Barn or the amount of pods Reef Nutrition provides is 10k plus.
