Product overview

Product Overview

The Copepod Hotel is a nonliving, high-surface-area aquarium structure intended to provide protected spaces that copepods and other small aquarium organisms may occupy. It can be placed in a refugium, sump, or suitable low-predation area according to the product directions.

The accessory does not contain copepods, feed a population, remove nutrients, or guarantee colonization, reproduction, survival, or a self-sustaining food source. Results depend on the organisms introduced, placement, flow, maintenance, predation, and overall aquarium conditions.

Rinse with aquarium-safe water before use and inspect it during routine maintenance.
