    If I remember correctly, it is just a heater, air stone, and a big yellow kitchen sponge. You would have to ask Pack for exact details.

    :lol: send Packleader a pm, he can get you started. But you do know your tank will have to cycle and be up and running for at least 6 months if not much longer to achieve proper pod populations.

    You don't need to worry about pods, mandarin or anything for at least a month. What size tank did you set up? First things you'll need are a good set of water test kits, and first live stock get yourself a yellowtail blue damsel to cycle the tank with after the nitrite cycle and some hermit crabs and snails. It won't be much to look at for a while, but these things take time.
