Your thoughts on this fish in a 75 if at all.

I'd three in a 75g when I started in 2006 and they were fine. Get plenty of established LRs for them to graze and for shelter. Then buy a bag/bottle of pods to populate the tank.

Only one male otherwise they will fight.

Thanks Flame

I read alot about these things dying after purchase.

Is there a specific "bottle" of Pods you recommend. Right now I have a ton of LR, don't see much in the way of pods.

You can get it from reef nutrition
here (http://www.reed-store.com/?category=59&subcategory=28)

or you get them living on macro plants at your lfs or local reefer's fuge.

I believe I heard those Reef Nutrition pods won't really do well. They won't multiply like the regular amphipods and copepods that you usually get from LR and chaeto. So IMO that's a waste of money on those expensive bottles of reef nutrition.

why do you have to have pods will they not take to prepared foods?

[flameangel88]

They don't eat a lot at each feeding but snack all day long just like a Mandarin.

Mine will eat small pellets and nip on nori but still like to snack small portions unlike most other fish that eat as much as they can on each feeding.
