I've ordered pods from them 2x now. Both times it was all amphipods, which are too big for mandarins and pipefish. Bummer.

that's odd, I got a pretty diverse mix. And fwiw, with my mandys and pipes, IME eat the baby pods after the bloom. Our male now will also take on any of them that fit in his mouth.

Question though. Do I need to feed the pods anything?
nope.
If you have chato, I sprinkle flake food or coral frenzy on top of it to stimulate a bloom from time to time.

I've ordered quite a few times from aquarium depot. On one order a package was DOA...stunk to high heaven. They immediately shipped out two replacement packages.
