Live mysids?

Fellow reefers,

I am in desperate need of your help. I have been away on Christmas break this week, just returned home to hatched cuttles!! I am over-nighting mysids, but due to the holiday am, afraid they won't arrive in time. If any of you have a few to spare it would save my hide. Thank you in advance for your help!

Hatched what?

 

Only the coolest animal in the ocean! Dwarf cuttlefish, Sepia Bandensis.

In my 4 years on this site never come across them sorry

 

Can you use Frozen?

 

Unfortunately they need live for the first few days.

 

Dude, you have cuttlefish?!? That's pretty sweet! Woulda never thought someone in Iowa would have them! Unfortunately, all I have is frozen...

 

Try contacting the Central Campus people.

 

I am a central campus student, but we don't have a mysis culture set up yet because I didn't anticipate them hatching this early. I searched a few tanks today, and found about 10 of them, so hopefully they should hold me over for a few days.

 

LOL! Well then, you are the best source I know of.
