![]() i need pods really bad... i cant induce my mandarin to eat frozen for nothing , i had a massive population of pods and he decimated them to the point where he is unfortunately starving.
if anyone is willing to donate a sizeable portion of pods or sell me a bunch i would be eternally grateful. i want to get him back to health so i can pass him on to someone in good health or continue to raise him myslf by introducing a sustainable pods population via cheato or whatever. sorry for the long windedness Thanks Again |

![]() You can also buy pods at Ocean Aquatics but they are not cheap. I think the Mandarin will be better off in a bigger tank.

![]() I came across this on RC a couple of days ago
http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh...readid=1017583 You can build a couple of these and pass them out to some friends to build up the pod population (or seed with Tiger pods). This could provide a permanent solution for you, as the pods will always have a safe place to reproduce and keep their number up.

![]() We were in the same situation... lots of pods+mandarin=few pods,+fuge=fat mandarin and healthy pod population. Get a fuge! Those podcondos will help alot though.
