Pods - Someone please.

I know that I got a lot of responses about how these pods are not bad for my tank. They are little clear ones with a black stripe down the middle. I saw one float by that I took out because it got stuck on my filter screen. I looked almost like a tiny tiny shrimp and was folded in half. I am pretty sure it was dead. I have these little "bugs" ALL OVER MY TANK!!!! They are on the glass and rock and just multiplying like crazy. They dont seem to do much other then crawl around all day and eat whatever they can find (I guess thats what they are doing). How do I get rid of atleast most of them though? I have 100's probably. I read the black cap basslets eat all the pods, even the bad ones. I also have a scribbled angel that will nip at them occasionaly. And am adding a yellow eye tang tomorrow (but they wont touch them).

Yeah I was looking at a 6 line. Those things are cool looking. It just is hard to find something because I know how I want to build my tank over the next 3-4 years and it seems that I will always find a reason why a fish wont fit into my plans. The 6 line or Black Cap Basslet looks like they will both be good additions though. Thanks for the suggestion.

wrasse's and other fish, besides mandarins or a few blennies, will not decimate your pod population. they will only pick ay what they can see. mandarins however hunt all day through the rocks for them.
