i am in agreeance here. i do not think it will survive in the long term. to me, success with an animal in this hobby means keeping it for as long as it would survive in the wild, not two or three or even five years. i would not trust a survey of typical reef aquarists to tell me how big of a tank is required to keep these guys alive. i do not think the friend is ready for a mandarin.
