With NYOS® GOLDPODS you get a ready-to-use, liquid zooplankton concentrate from the pure waters of the Arctic seas. GOLDPODS contain the calanoid copepod Calanus finmachicus (size 2mm). This is an ideal food for numerous delicate marine ornamental fish and LPS corals.

High-quality raw material as a basis:

The secret of NYOS® GOLDPODS lies in a very high quality raw material. The freshly caught copepods are processed in a special process developed at a Norwegian university. This patent-pending method deactivates autolytic enzymes that would further break down valuable components such as fatty acids and proteins. The copepods are also coated with an ultra-thin membrane made of natural marine components. This successfully counteracts the escape of important nutrients.

The advantages at a glance:

  • Extremely practical and time-saving to use: Can be added directly to the aquarium using the enclosed dosing cup or a pipette. No thawing necessary.
  • Use in research, aquaculture and ornamental fish farming

Here are the instructions for unpacking and acclimating Berghia snails:

  • Berghia snails are specialized feeders that only eat Aiptasia sp. It is important to always have enough Aiptasia for them or to pass them on in a timely manner.
  • They are less suitable for larger aquariums with many fish, but if necessary they can be placed in the evening with the lights turned off using the transfer pipette.
  • Direct contact between snails and Aiptasia should be avoided as this can lead to the death of the snails. The snails must make contact with the Aiptasia themselves.
  • Berghia snails are ideal for controlling Aiptasia in small aquariums with peaceful fish or in separate "treatment aquariums".
  • The snails delivered are not yet fully grown and can, if necessary, be fed in a separate aquarium until they reach the desired size.
  • To open the Styrofoam box, simply pull on the blue ribbon. The insulated packaging does not need to be removed from the box. Allow the temperatures to equalize for around 10 minutes by placing the unopened transport container in the aquarium.
  • Carefully unscrew the white lid anti-clockwise. The transport container may be full of sea water and individual snails may be stuck to the lid. If this happens, place the lid in a small bowl of sea water from the aquarium.
  • Use the transfer pipette provided to remove the snails from the container and transfer them to the aquarium. Repeat the process with all snails.
  • The insulated box is recyclable and can be disposed of as recyclables or used for other purposes.
  • In case of a complaint, we ask for an email on the day of arrival with a photo of the snail in the transport cup for a replacement.
