Tigriopus californicus are known for their resilience and ability to thrive in a variety of marine environments.

Instructions for Use:

For optimal results, add Live Triggers directly to your display tank or refugium. They thrive in rock work, macroalgae, and other substrate where they can breed and establish a lasting population. These copepods can enhance tank health by contributing to natural filtration, algae control, and providing a live food source that your fish will love.

To maintain a healthy population, we recommend dosing live phytoplankton to support their nutritional needs and breeding. Use within one week of purchase for best results, but they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to four weeks with proper care in an open package for airflow.

Packaging & Shipping:
We package our Live Triggers in a large bottle or, for longer shipments, in a barrier pouch to ensure they arrive with plenty of oxygen and in peak condition.
