    Guess I didnt answer the question did I?
    hi deep containers will work yes but some thing that has large surface area, if you have a big deep tank with 50 pods your chances of having enough to feed your fish will be slim
    the main key we found is LIGHT they love it as they are attracted to it the next thing is hidding places macro alage as this helps with the water quality.

    I also found mine preferred plastic culture containers to glass. Do you agree with this?
