Mine was near 4 yrs. old when I switched to a barebottom. Despite him eating mysis & bloodworms, he did start loosing weight. Had to move him to a friends pod loaded tank to fatten up.

I agree with Tony. If one has a large amount of rock, which seems not to go with the barebottom idea and things like rubble piles or something, which also collect detritus, then the pods would have someplace to hide. Or a large enough tank.
