i had tried doing the tigger pods. However, I found them to be slow at reproducing and dumped the two cultures I had going into my main tank.
they are easy to keep alive at least in a small container.
IMO a bit slow at reproducing.
If you are looking at reproducing something to feed your tank, I would suggest rotifers.
easy setup and double almost daily.
the tiggerpods would, as far as I know, would need to be fed wherever they are.
If that is in your tank, that could become expensive. (more food is required)
I may be wrong though and they could be able to just eat whatever is in the tank.
the tigger pods are not that big though.
I think some people confuses the amphipods(which can get up to about .5 cm and are in most mature tanks) are what you will get when u order the tiggerpods. at least I did when I ordered them.
However, tigger pods are about the size of a flea. sill pretty tiny.
hope this helps.
I ended up buying my stuff from
http://www.reed-mariculture.com/aquaculture/
good site, really good people to work with.
Definitely recommended. a bit expensive but honestly, I don't mind paying a bit more for the good advice and good product.
just my 2 cents worth
