copedpods

Hi All, Made the classic mistake of buying an unresearched species at the LFS this weekend. All of my gracillaria macroalgae disappeared without a trace over the course of 2 weeks and at the same time I had an amphipod explosion so my theory is that they ate it all. I have a 20 gallon AIO and...

Or is there any easy/cheap way to add Copes to my SW tanks. Copepods seeds are not available in my...

Copepods or something else? Quite a large and dense population. I’ve seen copepods before but never this big. I have some on my glass which are very small.
