Welcome to Essential Live Feeds, the premier source for live copepods for your saltwater aquarium and outdoor pond!

We have 2 species currently available:
Nitokra lacustris and Tigriopus californicus

Nitokra lacustris - a successful food for mandarins! You can start your own culture to feed these hungry little guys, or buy bulk orders to add directly to your tank.
Tigriopus sp. are larger (about 2 mm length) and the nauplii are free-swimming in the water column, which make them an ideal feed for seahorses and clownfish.	<>

Copepods purchased from Essential Live Feeds and other vendors are solely for personal use and not for resale. Contact Essential Live Feeds if you have a question about this policy.

Were you looking for OCEAN PODS - the new hobbyist product designed for stocking or restocking your tank or refugium?
