Here is the little nano reef tank before I took out the giant mount of Cheato and other MA.
It went into a 6.6G glass Edge tank from a different Edge set up. With a air pump bubbling and 24 hour light to grow the Chaeto. A daylight bulb and a 50/50 actinic bulb.
Today I bought a new batch of pods from the SW lfs to feed the little fish in my nano, and some green water for food.
Did a pwc on my SW nano of 1 gallon.
Did a 1 gallon pwc on the Macroalgae tank using the dirty pwc water.
Just for the heck of it wanted to see if there were any pods I was throwing out in the MA tank water change. I put the water into the bag the pods came in from the SW lfs to see under the lamp light. The bag was swarming with pods. Probably more pods than what was in the bag I bought!!!
So the question is, how does one do a PWC and not throw away your pods?
It was crazy how much activity there was in the bag.
If you add a light to one end of the tank will the pods go to the end with the light and maybe remove some water from the dark end??? I just wasted $16.95, lol. Except the green food was a nice treat. (I guess) Obviously they lived well as they multiplied nicely. And liked the food I add on a regular basis.
What do you do with your pods???
