- Reef Benefits and General Information
- Crawls on rocks, and glass, but most importantly the adults will swim through the water column feeding on detritus, phytoplankton, algae, bacteria, and ciliates. By doing this they help improve your water clarity by cleaning the water column. Great food source for finicky eaters that prefer live foods such as seahorses, pipe dragons, anthias, wrasse and mandarins. Eggs released from females are a great food source for corals and filter feeders. Tisbe as with any pod species should be added to the refugium to be able to establish a population without predators so that they can continuously feed the reef above! These are 100% aqua cultured here in house at Bulldawg Reef. We recommend feeding Apocalypse pods any one of our Bulldawg Reef Juice mixes based on what benefits you are hoping to give to your reef!
