Planktura’s Reef Pulse Copepods bring live Tisbe directly to your aquarium, providing a natural, nutrient-rich food source for fish and invertebrates. These single-strain cultures are used to seed copepod populations in your tank, enhancing your reef ecosystem by stimulating natural feeding behaviors, boosting biodiversity, and supporting a balanced, self-sustaining environment.
