I have been researching the last two days and I am confused. I read where mandarin’s need the smaller Tisbe Pods. I also read that tigrio pods are better. I’m trying to start a culture because my tank was wiped clean of pods by my yellow headed sleeper goby whom I have since rehomed. My mandarin Kermit visible lost weight so I purchased both types of pods and added them to his tank and I turned over all the live rock. He loves nutramar ova frozen food but I can no longer get it so I’m trying to get him to eat frozen cyclops in the meantime. I am also in the process of sitting up a brine shrimp hatchery along with a baby brine shrimp feeding station. I dumped two bottles of nutramar Tigrio pods in a 5 1/2 gal tank with light flow. Feeding phyco pure every other day. I also have Tisbe Pods in a 2 gal tank with a small heater and a bubbler and pieces of live rock. Can a mandarin eat both types of pods? If so I’m going to grab a couple more bottles of each to add to my cultures. I was also thinking of buying another small heater to put in the tigrio tank to help boost breeding. I am currently in a hotel room so it’s hard to find space to set these up so if tisbe aren’t a good idea I will do away with that culture and take them to job and put them in our classroom tank which currently has no pod eaters. Any and all suggestion are much appreciated
