    Is it still in your fuge? How is the pod population if he is. I have heard they will deplete all the pods in a fuge quickly and that's why they should be in the dt.

    please excuse wrong words, I posted this from my phone that auto "corrects."

    i can still see pods on the glass and almost everywhere else. my fuge is FILLED with calupra and little live rock piles so maybe he isnt able to reach all the pods.
