    We have our culture system cranked up and are now offering bottles of live foods for $10 each.





    Available now are


    Tigger pods


    Tisbe pods


    Artemia


    Rotifers





    It is really cool to add a bottle of live food to your tank and watch your fish perk up and go crazy for them. This is their natural food in the ocean, there is not someone there feeding them frozen food twice a day!

    Hey Craig is this something that is reasonable to ship to the DSM area?

    if we can find a couple warmer days, we can ship it for $10, any amount. Usually they will arrive overnight, but may be two days.

    Cooler temps wont hurt them as we keep them in the fridge for up to two weeks, but definitely do not want them close to freezing.

    Can you let us know when it would be warm enough and maybe we can look at doing a group buy or something for our region!

    Plan on anytime the temp isnt going to drop below 20 degrees two nights in a row. We will styro them for sure, but better safe then sorry.

    Let me know if you are going to need a lot of bottles, and I will ramp up so we have enough to fill them up good.

    I just posted in the Des Moines Area asking others if they would want to join in.

    I will let you know what we figure out.

    8 oz, but in reality they could be a 4oz since the pods are tiny and don't take up much room
