How are they above the water line? You mean they crawled out? Any pics?

They're trying to escape nasty water?

Do you have something like a sponge or something for them to attach to in the water?

 

[CAmor07]

Yeah, theres rocks and spondge on the bottom, there all alive

Did you move the bucket? Looks like the water moved, and they got stuck to the sides.

That's weird. Are the pods out of water alive?

 

[CAmor07]

There all alive and moving and when i squirt them back into the water they come straight back up

 

[CAmor07]

Should i take the lid of i have on them

 

[CAmor07]

Should i transfer water?

what's your setup like? Is there any aeration?

 

[CAmor07]

no, the pod breeder i spoke to said it wasnt neccesary

 

[CAmor07]

there just in a bucket

They might be suffocating with no running water.. Are they just sitting stagnant in a bucket?

Should i take the lid of i have on them

And you have it covered?

I changed it over too a 10G with power filter. I think it was the aeration. Silly me, i had it covered to stop evaporation. Thanks for everyones help

probably coming towards the light they are attracted to it. they need a place to hide maybe. cover it with something.
