Culturing Pods

Also, does anyone have some extra pods they want to donate? Or know of any places i can buy some from in the city?

Thanks

After doing a little research since the 'mandarin in a nano' thread, I found out that most mandarins generally eat the pod eggs and larvae, not the adult pods. In my tank I can see them eating but can't actually see their food, now I know why. They only eat adult pods when trained to do so, it is not their natural diet.
