Description
Apocalypse Pods
Apocyclops panamensis
These hardy copepods are slightly larger than Tisbe pods and slightly smaller than Tigriopus copepods.This intermediate size makes them a healthy live snack for your finicky fish and coral.Apocyclops copepods are extremely nutritious with a very high amino acid and protein content.Apocyclops copepods contain high amounts of Astaxanthin which can enhance and brighten the colors of your fish and coral.
These warm water copepods reproduce extremely quickly by laying eggs every 4-6 days, about twice the rate of Tisbe and Tigriopus!Apocyclops copepods feed onphytoplankton, fish waste, and other detritus in your tank making them a critical part of any clean-up crew.manbetx3.0最新As juveniles, Apocyclops copepods are benthic meaning they stay hidden in the rockwork, macroalgae, and glass in your aquarium.
AsApocyclops copepodsmature into adults they lay eggs before becoming pelagic and making their way into the water column where they provide a sustainable and nutritious live food source for your fish and corals.
PLEASE NOTE:Apocalypse Pods contains a range of juvenile to adult copepods.Juvenile copepods are difficult to see with the naked eye upon arrival, but are best for establishing sustainable copepod populations.This is because livestock do not consume the copepods immediately after you add them into your tank!
