Ok, I did mean Regal as in Tang. As far as I can tell, my Mandarin is a Female... from the small amount that I know about sexing them... 'she' has a small dorsal fin with no long point on it. The guy at the LFS thought her to be female as well. As for the food issue... I am well aware of this. Two things though: 1. I have a scooter Blenny which is competing for the same food as well... he would be getting traded in. 2. LFS sells live pods. Expensive, but there if needed. What I've been doing so far is I've put a bottle of pods in there every month or so just to make sure that they have a good source, and in doing this I'm sure I'll end up with them establishing in the tank. As for the spawning comment... are they easy to get to spawn? This isn't something that I had really considered. I just love the look of them, they are one of my favorite fish!
