Well mine a new horse and she came a little lithe. She isn't concave but she doesn't pudge out either.

I'm not really trying to produce the pods in tank.

I have a separate 10 gallon amphipods tank. I am planning to mostly remove the juvenile amphipods from the breeder and put those in the tank to be eaten or grow larger. I covered pvc tubing with crushed coral to create lots of surface area for pods that is still open. I do have some chaeto in the seahorse tank.

It isn't their main food source it's for fun for them and added nutrition as well as tank clean up. I also have tons of tisbe pods in the amphipods culture tank. And a separate 10 gallon tisbe tank attached to a ten gallon mysid tank. Everything is breeding right now except the mysid. I'm dumping hundreds of tisbes a day into the display tank.
