I got a 8 line wrasse and 2 damsels. How do i recharge my system?

How do i get pods in my tank? I know they come from the live rocks and from plants like the cheato. But say if all the pods died off how can i create more pods? Or do they just reproduce off bacteria on the rocks and plants?

Do they eat formula 2? My wrasse seems to not be eating it. All its eating now are little pods it finds in the tank.

are 8 line wrasses reef safe??

i think i know what happened to my tank now. I think the sponges i used had dry soap on it. Whats the best way to redo my tank to get all the soap out?

most of the corals were shriveled up the day i found the fish dead. i also have an anemome as well. it was opened up but not as big as when the tank was healthy..

i did a water change after all the fish died becuase i still have coral in the tank and i wanted them to survive... As for the ammonia, it is probably due to overfeeding becuase my fish had a little ick and i wanted to feed it a little more so i can grow a better immune system.

the tank is about 5 months old but everything thats in it was transfered from an existing tank. the tank was cycled using live sand from another tank and also a shrimp. I emptyed out like 98% of the water out of the tank, couldnt get the rest out, and changed it with new water. I did not clean...

the only thing i did was dose it with the chemicals i ususally dose it with every week... calcium, iodine, and essential elements. Then i put a sponge in the overflow box to quiet the sound. Other then that i did nothing else. I empty the tank out and redid the water and nows theres a clear...

for some sorta reason my ammonia is always at .25 even tho i had a small bioload so i dont believe thats the problem either. I had the tank for about 5 months running and it never got bellow .25

I woudnt think its the ammonia or a disease tho because during the day time they were swimming normally and eating. Could it be possible that the sponges i put in the overflow box cut off the fishes oxygen or something like that?

i ahve about 80 pounds of live rock, no power loss, i tested the ammonia the same night taht they all died cause i noticed they were breathing abnormal. I lost 2 damsels, 2 clowns, and a tang

o yea i looked at night and the fish looked like they were breathing pretty hard...
