I disagree, if you watch closely and dose pods accordingly it wouldn't be a big deal. What is the difference between putting pods in there (food) and putting flakes (a different kind of food) in there for 2 clowns? Either way your putting food into the tank to feed your livestock.

 

Well I guess if you're going to dose pods every time you feed flake it's not that big of a deal. Just don't see that happening though.
Keep in mind a mandarin is about like a hummingbird. They eat constantly.

You don't have to worry about it though if the 6 line is gone.

 

I wasn't talkin about adding pods every feeding, just when the supply gets low. I don't think they would need to be added every other day, but your dosing with a sixline and mandarin in a 29g so you would know more about how often it is needed... but like you said I doubt I have anything to worry about now cause I haven't seen him in over a week! Oh well, corals are doin great!! You were right, I enjoy the corals more than the fish now!

 

Yea after having a mandarin in QT for a few months now I'd never do it again. Should have just hooked you up when you wanted him. I know I've spent over $100 on pods for the QT alone and he's still WAY too skinny.

I'm with you on the corals though. They're much more interesting.

 

100 bones is a lot o money for pods! Damn, we coulda went to the strip club!! Lookin to get a clam soon and some more SPS in a couple more months, I want to see how the ones I have now fare before I get any more.

 

Scott, what happened to your Mandarin? Kogle said he got skinny and died, mine is looking real skinny and so is Ogles, I was just wonderin the story and see if there is anything I can watch for/or do to help things out. I hope he is just having a long adjustment period... He acts healthy just doesn't look it...

 

I can actually tell where mine has put on some weight in the past 2 weeks. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

 

I believe it is from having another fish in there competing for the same food source is what happened to mine. So I hear your ready to sell your setup already???? Boy that didn't take long to get bored with.

 

If you still want to sell it to me I'll give you $200 for it. ;D

I could use a lion fish anyhow and he'd look cool i your (my old) 55

 

Who did you hear that from?? I'm confused here... don't tell me you've been drinkin!!
