PE Cyclopeeze Retired?

[wpeterson]

I was shopping at the local fish store today and they were almost entirely out of Cyclopeeze. They said the product line is over and no new shipments are coming, that there's a new frozen copepod product coming.

It looks like the cyclopeeze are being replaced with a new type of pod: PE Calanus.

The new twin packs of PE Mysis and PE Calanus will be available in the U.S. starting next week in a convenient blister package and a standalone PE Calanus package will be made available later this year. We’ve been using Calanus as our new go-to coral food for a few weeks now and besides the red coloration, there is no perceivable difference from using Cyclop-Eeze in regards to feeding corals.​

I still have a bar of Cyclopeeze that I bought 3 years ago. Maybe I can cryo it and sell it later in 20 years after all the ice caps have melted.

On a more serious note, I don't see any difference in SPS or LPS when I feed this stuff. If the fish doesn't eat, cyclopeeze doesn't do much to enthice it.

I had the best luck with training my leopard wrasses to eat prepared foods with Cyclopeeze... I'm sad to hear it is coming to an end.
