Eat copepods?

want to supplement my fuge with some tiggerpods and i just put about 25 ghost shrimp in there... will they devour the population and give them no shot at reproducing?

going to be a pain in the arse to get them out if i have to... =/ but gotta do what you gotta do lol. ill just throw my marine betta in my sump hell take care of them in a few days lol j/k. (bad experiences with sumping fish =/)

yup...those shrimp will even eat each other. I collected about 50 one year for feeding and I thought to help keep the fuge and sump clean...in a few months my pods/critters/worms etc.. population was almost wiped out and only had a few large ones left...
