Amphipods

Grammarus

Bigger than copepods but smaller than your clean up crew. These tiny scavengers can  bulldoze all sorts of algae, detritus, and even copepods if there is nothing to keep the population in check. A staple diet for sea horses and a favorite snack among fish. (Larger specimens may prove too large for mandarins)

• 6 - 12mm
• Excellent foragers 
• Feed for larger fish
