I read Beth's thread in the archives on pods the other day, very interesting stuff. I just wanted to know if anyone can answer afew questions I have on the subject:
1. How long does it take for their eggs to hatch.
2. What do they eat?
3. How long do they live 4?
4. Can their eggs survive out of water like brine shrimp eggs.
5. How to rid your tank of them if they get out of hand without buying a pod eating fish ie- will lowering the SG work?
thanks

Don't know much about their life cycle but you never really need to worry about them getting out of hand as most fish that I have had like wrasses and other fish like to eat them if they see/find them. They eat algea growing on the rocks and glass along with left over fish food. If one drops some sinking fish food pellets in the tank at night then look with a flashlight with the room dark you can see the eat. They must be able to smell the food as they come out fairly quickly to eat. Lesley
