do you have a sump/fuge?? within a week of adding the sump my glass was covered in pods

 

[z00crazy]

no i dont have one, im going to college soon and its a 20 gallon max tank size, and im taking my 29 to try and get away with it. I highly doubt they would let me have 2 tanks

Reef Life sell pods in little bottles. I think they are called Aqua Pods.
