Best source of pods?
Hello folks?
Want to get a mandarin and/or other dragonettes in my tank but want to give the pods a head start. I do not have a fudge. What source you recommend for pods and how much of a head start should I give them to help them become sustainable? Thanks!! Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
For long-term sustainability, would you consider a HOB Fuge like a CPR?
For online places, consider Algaebarn.com to get you started. |
I Go through a place called "pod your reef"

I've ordered from algaebarn and podyourreef. Both great companies to order pods from.

Thank you all. Some questions. I have a 72G +18G sump. What size of pack should I get? The more the better?
Also should I only get the pods or the phyto combo? How long should I wait to introduce some pods eating fish? Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
If you want to keep a mandarn long term in that size tank you really should have some kind of fuge, or expect to take alternative measures to accomidate the mandarins metabolism and need for constant pods/food supply

+1 It’s going to be a challenge keeping a Mandy in that size tank. You’ll need a very large fuge and I’d recommend getting a captive bred one that will eat mysis or pellets just to help supplement their diet. Keep in mind, Mandy’s hunt and eat pods pretty much all day so you need a system that can provide them with a constant source of food. Good luck! |

I've used AlgaeBarn as well. I've also bought them from PetCo. They have a small fridge in the reptile department that they keep pods in. They are Tisbe pods and I've been really pleased with them.
|
Any idea of what size of combo should I buy in algaebarn..and how to dose them? Should I just throw them all in or they are supposed to go in portions?
|
buy as many as you want, and just dump them in. If you want a variety, get the 5280 mix.
