CYCLOP-EEZE is a new biologically engineered organism of the Copepod family. It has much higher concentrations of essential omega-3 fatty acids, biological pigments and other nutrients than Brine Shrimp. This Artemia Nauplii substitute is available in freeze dried form and is a significant cost effective replacement for Artemia Nauplii (newly hatched Brine Shrimp). The Freeze Dried product presents itself in powder form providing a convenient means of storage and application. The superior HUFA levels make Cyclop-eeze an exceptional feed for many Marine Organisms especially useful in Reef Tanks. This brilliant blood orange organism boasts the highest known concentration of w-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids, as well as the highest known concentration of biological pigments. The product is lyophilized (freeze dried), or Deep Frozen, to retain these very sensitive nutrients. CYCLOP-EEZE therefore has much value as a color and reproductive enhancer for ornamental fish. Cyclop-eeze are derived from the family of copepod grown in a pristine, arctic salina in the north of Canada. Argent
This is excellent for feeding fry of either salt or fresh water.

Looking for a true replica of reef snow for your reef inhabitants?
Marc Weiss Reef Bugs are actual LIVING microbes that will inspire your corals to extend their polyps and have your scallops and feather dusters reaching out for a taste. Reef Bugs contains twelve strains of edible, non-pathogenic microbes in their encysted spore state. Packed with a mixture of minerals, vitamins, and carbohydrates, these microbes will hatch in about 30 minutes from when they hit the water. The additional particles then act as "carriers" for the microbes to "ride on" once they have hatched. Microbes that aren't eaten will start to divide and multiply, supplying your reef with a colonized substrate where they can consume detritus and excess food. Reef Bugs are amazing for all reef aquaria, plus- try them in your refugium!
Instructions:
Amount added to aquarium depends on bio-load, how long the system has been operating, the state of cycling, etc.
One teaspoon (approximately 1.5 grams) or more per day could be consumed per 100 gallons in an established, well-stocked reef aquarium.
Start more conservatively; a 0.5 teaspoon once per day (or every other day per 100 gallons).
Take a cup of aquarium water, mix in the quantity of dry Reef Bugs needed and stir.
Stir again after about 10 minutes and stir again after about 20 minutes.
Try to dissolve as throughly as possible to aid hatching and particle aggregation.
Stir again at 30 minutes and pour into aquarium.
All may not be dissolved. It will dissolve in the aquarium and be utilized.
Through the times given are approximate; do try to leave the mixture in the cup for the full 30 minutes before pouring into the aquarium.
Alternatively...just sprinkle into the aquarium. It will take at least 30 minutes for dissolution, which may not be complete.
Particles may be eaten by fish or some other non-target critter.
It is harmless to fishes and other marine life.
You may wish to try some dry and some that has been soaked
Specifications:
Ideal for corals, live rock, sponges, octocorals, gorgonians, zooanthids, clams, scallops, xenia and star polyps.
Enough for over 50 portions for a 100 gallon aquarium.
Reef Bugs
The only SPS coral growth enhancer that's backed by hard science.
Enhances ability for SPS (small polyp stony) corals and to nourish themselves as they do in nature.
Economical natural dry formula - not "fish food" dissolved in water containing biocidal preservatives that can damage beneficial microorganisms and zooxanthellae.
Obvious results, usually within two weeks.
Hastens growth of frags.
Non polluting - excess consumed by skimmer.
Small polyp stony corals (SPS) primarily eat detrital aggregates colonized by beneficial bacterioplankton adhering to coral's mucus layer. There's also a fungal element to the symbiotic mix. SPS farm their own food in their mucus layer, especially in recesses in their structure. SPS are carnivorous and high-protein microbes support growth and health in them.
SPS do not appear to digest phytoplankton (algae) They culture their own, called zooxanthellae. Their internal zooxanthellae are nourished through mucus by the byproducts of bacterioplankton. Zooplankton are sparse in nature and make up a small amount of the coral's nutritional intake. Bacteria in the mucus layer are required to degrade it first. In time, the bacterioplankton fix and reduce nitrates produced by this rotting. These large pieces of coral nutrients are adding to the pollution in the aquarium until it is consumed. Bacteria enriched coral mucus also contains beneficial organisms that may eat, crowd out or provide antibiotics by-products against coral pathogens.
SPS Coral Grow provides a bio-film that adheres to and enhances the coral's mucus layer. This bio-film provides an enhanced environment for increased bacterioplankton colonization allowing SPS to feed themselves more efficiently. Feeding with coral foods may become unnecessary. This eliminates pollution caused by excess food. The use of the appropriate trace elements and water conditioners should be continues. SPS Coral Grow is a natural cultured detrital aggregate with no biocidal preservatives, as are needed in liquid coral foods. Results are usually seen within two weeks.
Directions:
Amount used depends on bio-load which is the quantity of corals in the aquarium. A starting guide is one-half teaspoon per hundred gallons every other day. Heavily stocked aquariums can consume one teaspoon or more daily. Excess will be picked up by the skimmer. Mix proportion to be used in some reef aquarium water and pour into an area with current. It's not important that all of it initially dissolves.
SPS Coral Grow
The only soft coral growth enhancer that's backed by hard science.
Enhances ability of soft corals and polyps to nourish themselves as they do in nature.
Economical natural dry formula - not "fish food" dissolved in water containing biocidal preservatives that can damage beneficial microorganisms and zooxanthellae.
Obvious results, usually within two weeks.
Hastens growth of frags and cuttings.
Non polluting - excess consumed by skimmer.
Soft corals and polyps primarily eat detrital aggregates colonized by beneficial bacterioplankton adhering to their copious mucus layer. There's also a fungal element to the symbiotic mix. These organisms farm their own food in their mucus layer. Soft corals are carnivorous and high-protein microbes support growth and health in them.
Soft corals do not appear to digest phytoplankton (algae) but there appears to be a positive response to their dissolved remains. They're nourished through their mucus envelope via the byproducts of bacterioplankton. Zooplankton are sparse in nature and make up a small amount of the soft coral's nutritional intake. Bacteria in the mucus layer are required to degrade it first. In time, the bacterioplankton fix and reduce nitrates produced by this rotting. These large pieces of coral nutrients are adding to the pollution in the aquarium until it is consumed. Bacteria enriched coral mucus also contains beneficial organisms that may eat, crowd out or provide antibiotics by-products against pathogens.
