Hello, I am looking for starter cultures of Apocyclops panamensis and Oxyrrhis marina. If you are willing to provide a starter, I'd be happy to pay a fair price. Thanks! Scott

Hi Jim, I can't pm without at least one post. I don't want to pollute the forums with meaningless posts just to get a minimum post count. I could start a system build thread as that is what i am in the process of now. I'd be happy to defend my post count though. I am just getting back into breeding after taking a break for several years. I used to be on the MOFIB boards. I used to mostly breed Hippocampus fuscus, though I've dabbled in other similarly easy species. I am looking to work with some more challenging species now, hence the need for copepods. I am planning to start with Doryrhamphus excisus and if successful, move on to other pipe species. I made a few unsuccessful attempts at the bluestripe pipes years ago, but all I had in culture at the time was rotifers and Tigriopus. I know that you've had success with this species using Apocyclops, so I thought I'd use that as a starting point. I talked with Dan Underwood yesterday and he suggested that I contact you. Thanks for any help you can provide! Scott

Fair enough. You caught me in a grumpy mood. Again, PM me.

Hey Scooter! Welcome back! We are all glad to have you here! And I also speak for grumpy Jim, the copepod, hippocampus wonderboy. He's usually ungrumpy. Thanks for taking the grumpiness well.

Thanks! The holidays have temporarily distracted me, so I haven't been on here much lately. Hopefully, I'll have more time in January. Scott
