Now that I have loads of pods in my cycling tank, I`d like to keep the
population going. What do they eat?

Fitoplankton (green water).
You can buy it from many sources.

You could design in-tank refugium with a pile of rubble
so the pods will have a room to hide from the fish...
But it is much less effective than a separate refugium tank.

I have an 8-gal. hex, and it is literally crawling with shrimp and copepods.
Probably about 15 lbs. of rock. There are no fish yet, just blue-leg crabs, one
red-leg crab, an anemone crab and various snails.

If I put a mandarin goby in there, do you think the tank is big enough to keep
him in pods, or would he clean them all out and then starve?

Thanks,
Cindy
