Pods seem to like anything. I feed mine turtle pellets, algae wafers,
carnivore pellets (all meant for my freshwater fish) and of course they
get leftovers such as brine and mysis shrimp, prawn, whiting, nori,
marine green and a variety of flake and pellet foods. I'm sure I read
somewhere they prefer vegetable matter though.

ON the intank fuge, you could build a couple of small boxes out of mesh
and hide them in the rocks. This way the fish can not get into the mesh
to eat the pods inside the box but the pods can get out very easly.


What makes the pods propogate? Is there something you can put in the mesh
box that feeds the pods? Also---my new tank is 65 gal. and there are loads
of pods---seemingly more each day. I was pondering putting a very small
Mandarin in there as the first fish. I though I might be able to induce it
to eat non-live foods if it was the only fish in there for a while. Is this
a possibility?

thanks
