  1. Raising Pods

    Okay, I'm wanting to grow a fairly small amount of pods to supplement the frozen feedings for my Mandarin (it is perhaps best to think of the frozen food as the supplement). From what I've read they should do fine sitting in a window seal, loaded up with phyto each day with a small ball of chaeto in the water with them. It would experience pretty heavy temp changes in the window, but I would cap it to keep the evaporation down. Would do a small water change just like a typical change and feed ...

    Anyone in the Middle Tennessee area? Looking for some clubs / social networking in the area. MTRC (http://www.mtrc.org) seems to be dead.

    I'm getting more and more involved with my aquatics hobby. I used to have a 55g FOLR tank, but now am working on 250g reef. The more people in the area, the better. Plus, it would be nice to do some frag swapping.

    Really, the closest thing I have to a club is Aquatic Critters (http://www.aquaticcritter.com), which is just my LFS. ...
