Pods

saw an advertisement on Facebook for “Pod Your Reef” has anyone bought from this company? How is their product compared to Algae Barn or Reef Nutrition?

yep. Local guy here in Texas. Good stuff. Equal to Algae Barn but not quite as diverse.
As far as comparing them to Reef Nutrition, I dont think anyone can come close to them. They do wholesale to fish breeders, large public aquariums as well as LFS. They also retail food both live and dry.

I just bought 3 bags of Tisbi pods from them and after a week no signs of life. It was VERY cold (below 0) when the pods were delivered here in OH. I contacted Josh at Podyourreef and explained my situation. He asked a few questions on acclimation...the normal stuff. Long story short, he is sending me 3 new bags free of charge; I just pay $13 S&H.. I told him that I was not sure if it was my mistake since this was the first time I had tried putting pods in my tanks. For the three bags, I have a 75G DT and a 180 DT that finished cycling about 1 month or two ago. I also tried a small 1G jar to grow some pods.

I have heard nothing but good things about their quality of product and just as importantly, their customer service. Verified....CS is outstanding! I will be receiving the pods early next week and I am confident they will be good...so will the weather.

i saw that ad recently too and tried them out... "Pod your reef:
so the First time I ordered i paid for "express Shipping" got to me exactly 7 days later. the shipping was in fact 2 days but 3 business days to process the order. ok
2nd time i ordered, i didnt pay the express shipping... it did ship out the next day and took 2 days to reach destination... Only not my house, not my mailbox, no one knows, but it said delivered... Its been a week just going back and forth with them, They finally said they could send me the order again, but they are out of some of the options i chose and i couldnt sub. Ok so refund me then.

Sorry to hear that. I had a similar experience with eBay where they said that my sump plumbing supplies were delivered, but they were not.

There are many cheap places found online, especially ebay, but go with the reputable places to avoid the headaches.
