There's nothing on that site that you can't get from another reefer - all of those organisms I have in my tank. As for the "assorted amphipods, copepods, etc", you're not really getting any of the specific burrowing detrivores per se. You could just be getting whatever zooplankton is crawling about their holding tanks.

I'm sure lots of people use these detrivore packages, but it seems that it's nothing that you couldn't carefully introduce (so as not to introduce pests) from any other local source.

Tony and Shrimpchips,
Yeah, that's why I was wondering if anybody had ordered from them. They have been in business for quite a while and are still selling the detrivore kits. I was wondering if people were happy with what they received.
There's also Indo Pacific Sea Farms in Hawaii.

They have sediment beds that are constantly exposed to open reef waters.

Mitch
