So you looking for a hatchery? or want to make one? just confused about the DIY. If you want one you have to build just take a soda bottle and flip it upside down, cut the top (which was the bottom) off, drill a hole in a piece of 2x4 that the cap will fit in for a base and run some tubing with air pump down to the bottom. Then just add a small light at the bottom so they hang around it. Should cost you close to nothing if you have an air pump. Add water, add food and there ya go!

And thanks for the details of the hatchery. That was how I was gonna do it.

I have decided to scrap that idea and do a pod farm in a small 5-10g tank and have a few small portable pod condos to switch out from farm to DT and visa versa.

+1 as well. I have seen the pod condos posted before, not sure where though. Would love to see this in action, wife has been talking about a sea horse tank, and I would like to do a mandrin.
