Excellent.
Thank you for sharing these photos.
I had seen this copepod many times but he did not know its name

Thanks. It actually was just dark field - no DIC (last two images).

I like very much your pictures from Tigriopus (also all your photos in Fickr!).
Is this copepode from your seawater-aquarium or from the sea?

Thank you. It was from a bottle one can purchase as starter kit to seed a population of these pods in your refugium. I do not really need it as I already have lots, but they are a different species and not as striking as these.
