A little over a month ago, I set up a separate 10gal tank to raise some extra pods for mandarin food. I just seeded it with a cup of
gunk from the bottom of my LFS live rock tank. It has a sponge filter, and several pieces of fake tonga rock. I feed it flake,
sinking, and frozen food a few times a week. Also dose Kent Phyto every few days. It is now loaded with pods, and I have been
floating a foam block in the tank for 24 hour periods, and then wringing it out in my 55gal.(Thanks Marc!) There is quite a
noticeable increase in the pod population in the 55. I'm hoping it will soon be mandarin ready! Here are a couple of pics. Tim
