    I am getting started again after a few year break, and would like to establish an amphipod population. Does anyone in the Des Moines area be willing to capture some to sell? I would rather give my money local than order online.

    Reefs2go is no longer, they changed their name to something else. I have ordered from 3 pod places including them and would do so again, pods are huge. I have heard bad reviews but I was told from others it was with their coral. I have ordered zoas from them and they werent the best.

    Thanks for the new name of the site. Reefs2go.com's site say under construction. Don't know what that means. To everyone else thanks for the responses.

    reefs2go abandoned the site. I asked them and they gave me some really BS excuse about how they tried to go with some online business company/package to modernize it and it got screwed up really bad and they lost control of the URL or something.

    Actual message from them

    I tried ordering from them not too long ago and there was no where to enter payment. You could add it to your cart but couldnt pay. I emailed them and they said they changed websites and had a new name. I usually bought 2 of the 1000 pod packs when they had the BOGO. They ship them in a chunk of foam/batting and its kind of a pain getting them out.

    Yea, that's kinda was I determined. Too bad. It seemed to be a good thing for a while. I thought about indo pacific sea farms but it's a lot of money for bugs. :D
