I try to re calibrate every time I use it, most times it is still on but I still test most every time. I used to use a swing arm and since I made the switch my salinity has been more stable. The swing arm just isn't that accurate.
You can buy pods at reef to go on line for 20 something dollars I have and they come pretty lively and very few dead.
Where do you live ACC sells pods you can culture like Nikkit said, I have cultured them on my window also.
I wouldn't wait to long the pipe, and manderin won't last long without them.
You can add a sump without drilling your tank if that's a concern with a hang on overflow it will be easier to have enough pod in your system with a sump.
On a second note I forgot I would slow down with how much I was adding to the tank you can crash your whole system by adding to much to fast, slow and steady is defiantly the way to go in reef keeping.
