Well pods are nocturnal,, check at night with a flashlight covered with red celophane.. ALSO could anything n you tank be eating them? ALL of my fish LOVE to eat them. IM surprised you had all of those pods in the first place, it took me 9 months before I saw my first one.

Ken,, do you have a fuge? what kind of fish do you have in your display? If you had some prior, they should make a come back or become more visible. Pending on what you have in the tank to provide them refuge and to not have them eaten, I dont think adding 200 will help you..

I bet you that CORAL is loving it eating those pods.. even my damsels love eating them. IF you do try propogating your tank again with pods, I suggest you do it at night a good hour after your lights have been out, to give them a shot at life.
