ReefDiver Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I've had a scooter blenny for about 10 months. About 3 weeks ago the blenny disappeared, I figured he died and the cleanup crew took care of him. After arriving home from work today I noticed something moving in the chaeto in my CPR aquafuge. There was the blenny feasting on pods in the fuge . He must have swam up the output tube from the aquafuge. What a relief, he was my first fish and was very entertaining, nice to have him back.

Perpetual98 Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I had a scooter in my 120 and I think he decimated the tank of pods and ended up starving. I had such a bad algae problem at the time I couldn't concentrate on pods. I've got a fuge now, but it isn't producing pods like I want, but I don't have any pod dependant fish in that tank either. I've got a dedicated 20L pod farm which is teeming with pods and mysid shrimp. I rotate rocks about every other week or so from the farm into the display tank. Eric Link to comment
ReefDiver Posted April 28, 2005 Author Share Posted April 28, 2005 My refugium is loaded with chaeto, I prune it every month. My water top of feeds into the fuge and overflow chamber pumps pods into the tank when the water is topped off. I also feed the fuge small amounts of marine snow and DT's phyto to encourage pod production. I have had virtually no problems with algae and my nitrates have been at 0 since since I installed the fuge right after setting up my tank a year ago. Link to comment
