Now I have just bought a marble/checkerboard wrasse about 3" long. I'm not sure if I have enough pods for him to munch on. Now, I have spionid worms in the sand that I think I've seen him peck at. Today is the 2nd or 3rd day I have him. I was wondering does the wrasse/.wrasses like to eat cerith snail eggs? Because if they do, I'd like that. Btw for anyone who's seen my aquascape before I have since changed it.

How long has the tank been up and running? Looks pretty new Have you ever seeded pods? Do you see them on the glass?
I have looked...hard to tell, if they are there they are small. I added biospira on June 7th 2021, so a little more than a month. Oh I have seen pods once before. I had a SW tank about, I got in trouble and 4 years ago they tore the tank down. I was devastated. Will never forget that moment. Lol, no I have never seeded pods *facepalm* thought you said *seen* and I look back and it says *seeded* now.

I guess I was asking both things. You're wondering if there's enough but we have no way to tell. If your tanks a month old, and it looks like started from dry rock, I would venture to say you did not have an abundant pod population. Seeding pods of different types and feeding phytoplankton will help them grow in numbers.

Any recommendations?
 
I have bought some tig pods. But he has tried the pellets but spit em out. Getting the pods within a couple days hopefully.
I would also consider nano brine or even can o cyclops since it sounds like the wrasse is a picky eater :)

Yes, but I got lucky, literally just ate some Hikari Marine S pellets about 10 mins ago for the first time keeping them down. However I do like your site. Live aquaria seems ok but looking for top quality. Your company may be it. I'll have to see.
