What feeds on PODS...

[Reilly Stv]

I noticed that there are not so many pods in my tank as there used to be....hardly any to be honest.
I have a 90 gallon tank...100 plus lbs of rock..DSB...Fuge loaded w/ rubble and cheato, where there are still plent of pods....Tank almost 2 years old...My only thoughts is that something is munchin on them....only critters in the tank are the following
Kole Tang
Flame hawk
Potters angel
2 Serpent stars (my guess, as the culprits)
2 sea cucs
snails.

not even any hermits

any ideas....

i wouldn't be surprised at all if the dwarf angel is/was decimating the pods.

I've never had a flamehawk - but aren't they invert eaters?

Hawks are wily and will eat hermits once they figure out how to get them out of the shell. They'll eat shrimp too. My hawk ate amphipods as well. The angel is probably eating some as well when he picks at the rocks.
