I’ve purchased multiple pods from different companies, this was the first time I’ve successfully been able to pod my tank! Thousands of live pods all over my tank! Thank you!
Christine G
I get this order every month to seed my 15 gallon AIO tank. I honestly never paid much attention until recently how much the pods are all over the rocks, sand bed, and sometimes floating in the water column. It’s pretty amazing.
Jerry M
I have been ordering Copepods for many years and I never notice any reaction from my fish or corals when I bought from other places not so buying from Pod Your Reef! The copepods were alive and well! You could even see some swimming around in the tank my mushroom corals went crazy! Highly recommend getting your copepods from here!
Nicole B
I’ve ordered copepods from several places and the care put into making sure it was packaged and received undamaged is unmatched. As long as this business exists, I will buy my pods right here! Shipping was fast and more importantly, every copepod was alive.

More Pods. Less Water. Better Shipping.
Highly Concentrated
We are proud to announce that we have successfully condensed the amount of copepods we ship into smaller bottles. This innovative approach has allowed us to maintain the high quality of our product while also reducing the amount of packaging material required.
By reducing the size of our bottles, we have also significantly reduced our carbon footprint, which is a step towards our goal of achieving a more sustainable business model. Our commitment to innovation and sustainability remains unwavering, and we look forward to continuing to find new ways to improve our products and reduce our impact on the environment.
Less Water
Less Water
Less water means we're able to provide the same amount of zooplankton as before without the added weight. This means we can ship in smaller boxes minimizing our carbon footprint and reducing shipping costs.
