Arctic Copepod Powder

[sharkweek178]

I had an issue with delivery from Brine Shrimp Direct. I called their customer service and they were great. They made everything right. And as a bonus, they sent me some sampler packs. One of them has arctic copepod powder. What can I do with that? Can I feed it directly to my fish? (Honey gourami, harlequin rasbora and pygmy corys). Another idea I had was using it to gutload my grindal worms before feeding them to my fish.

I use it for tiny fry feeding.

It is fantastic stuff no fish breeder should be without. Very useful.

I've been using krill powder for a batch of tetras this week - krill fines to bring them up to size for larger foods.

I don't have fry though.

I think so.

Maybe something like this Gary? Do you think all krill powder might be "equal" or like other fish foods in terms of hit and miss with quality? Am I looking for anything that says 100% krill powder? Or do you think it might come with fillers?

Pardon our interruption...

Ha same as what @Essjay had. Pardon our https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/306481209970 interruption link.

The jar I use has to be 10 years old, at least. So I should have thrown it out, but the product hasn't always been easy to get, and it still grows fry like it's new. I only use it for the first week or so. It would take a lifetime to use up the amount I have, unless I added it to paste foods. The grain size is soooo tiny it's of little use with adult fish, even small adult fish.

I can easily get coral food that looks like the photos in this thread, in terms of colour.

If they ever find a 5cm freshwater whale shark, I'm ready.
