15 Gal Stocking Question

My tank has a TON of pods and I was looking for a fish that is a natural predator that can control them and is ok for a 15 gallon tank.

I have two clowns and a cleaner shrimp and was going to stick with that but is there any small fish I can buy that will pick at these?

I was thinking a Mandarin or a 6 Line Wrasse.

Any input would be appreciated.

Your tank is not big enough to support a Mandarin long term & even the ones that eat pellets & frozen need to be fed several times a day. Six lines are agressive & in a tank that small with a pair of clowns you could have a blood bath later.

Maybe if you have occelaris clowns you could do another small fish but I think at 15g you are full. Pods are good, it's free fish food & you will see their numbers go up & down. I won't see any on the glass for weeks & then all of a sudden they're everywhere.
