Among the more beneficial marine invertebrates we can introduce to our reef aquarium tanks, ipsf’s Reef Amphipods are prodigious grazers of microalgae and macroalgae. They help control the growth of algae that might otherwise reach nuisance levels. Reef Amphipods are beneficial in the main tank as well as the refugium. They breed easily in captivity but will not overpopulate your system, being limited by space and available food. Observe them in a shallow bowl to see females with eggs attached to their abdomens. These eggs develop into swimming larvae which are released directly into the water column in the aquarium. Many types of fishes feed on Reef Amphipods, including clownfishes, sea horses and angelfishes. Please use only captive-bred organisms in your reef aquarium.

I set up your amphipod breeding kit in a ten gallon tank, it produces more than enough pods for my mandarin goby
I have these living in my external filter
Cutest little guys!
Thanks for all your efforts that you have put in this. Very interesting info. “Remember, Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did, but she did it backwards and in high heels.” by Faith Whittlesey.
