i picked up some live Copepods and Blood Worms from my LFS today. (Never bothered with live food before.)
Having got them home it occurred to me I didn't know if I needed to "clean" them before putting them in the tank.
The bags have about 100-200ml of water in them. I've now read that copepods are fed to marine fish, so I'm now wondering if they are not fresh water Copepods (do those even exist?) and if they could be in salt water.
The tank is 250L so any salt concentration would be low at most, but, bo can I just dump the whole contents of the bags in the tank?
