Not in the normal home aquarium they would eat waaay to many pods. Unless you had a huge tank, then its a possibility.

So I was closely checking out my 55g tank and lo and behold the sandbed is actually teeming with pods. I mean they are everywhere adn some are huge, like small little fish even. LOL
I'm thinking of scooping some of the sand out and putting it in my cube, give the pod population a boost maybe? Or maybe trying to feed them in a bottle and then pouring the bottle of pods in my cubes' fuge in back.
Sound like a crazy idea? Mandy is looking a little more plump thankfully but I'm still worried. I'm so hating the thought of moving her across the room into the 125g where I wont be able to see here every second and possibly loosing her in all that space. lol
What do you guys think? Am I being anal retentive again? LOL
carey said:LOL, Buffy.... I thought about moving Mandy into the 55g as kind of a treat, like her getting to go to an all you can eat buffet.

carey said:here's hoping! lol I just don't want her to be too far gone if I have to move her. It's been said it takes months for them to starve and I don't wanna put her through that. So much for ORA mandarins eating prepared. lol
Yeah, I don't wanna keep moving her, she's pretty delicate. I'll give her til this weekend and then I think i will move her.
By the way, banana the YWG won the July photo of the month!! I just noticed today@!@ She's eating a mysis shrimp that was way too big for her! I'm so excited, I've never won before!
