Pods

What would be a good fish to add to a 55g tank that will eat pods. When I turn the lights on at night they are every where.

a mandarin would eat them but long term wound not be good. try a wrasse like a 6line or something like that

Just about any wrasse will eat them, why would you want them gone? they are very benificial to your tank. They eat left overs and fish poo. Your fish will also snack on them.

6 and 4 yes. Never heard of a 3-line wrasse, but there is an 8-line wrasse.
