Switching to the darkside.

pods are very healthy for a tank, and some fish will eat them as food. Mandarians come to mind, but dont get one because your tank is to small and wont be able to support one for long. I would not worry about the pods, when you get fish in there they will start to go away. Some may die off as well while the tank continues to cycle. Keep up the great work and do a small water change. Test it and then i think you should be good for a small small fish.
 
Makes me wish I didnt get rid of my 10 gallon salt, now I have a 30 gallon salt, thinking about getting some of that live coral from petco.

make sure you have proper lighting for it.
 
i would do atleast a small one once a week. thats just me though. I know some people let the tank sit a little longer to cycle better. ive also known people to do water changes twice to even once a month. I like the small water change once a week though and works well for me. on a small tank i would do the once a week just because of how fast the water can get out of control. It also helps to do a quick test on the water before the water change too, like test nitrate and phosphate and thats it, and then once a month test those and calicum, dkh and what not. just my .02 though lol
 
Cool, thanks for the replies.

I found some local people in the area that gave me free heads of frogspawn and small pieces of rock with zoos. I'll take a pic tomorrow when the lights are on, but they're tiny.

Again, sorry about bad quality pics, I will borrow a 12 MP camera in a few days.
