Had her since June as a rescue from a friends tank move gone bad. I've only recently seen her come out and eat with everyone else when I feed mysis/blood worm/ cyclopeeze mixture. Until now as far as I know she's only been eating pods.

Mine has been with me for over a year now. He feeds himself pods and once I saw him with a bristle worm in his mouth but I couldn't get a camera quick enough. Never actually see him come out at feeding time.

This is great! Would you mind going into more detail on how and what you are culturing?
