Could one of the mods please delete the above post? how do these people think we won't notice?

Removed!
Ok ty someone removed it, if you had wondered what it was; someone was trying to sell telephones/electronics and that is why I thought it was so ridiculous

I have/had 3 mandarins. The first one (spotted) ate mysis and pellets and I owned him for about 2 years, I got him from another canreef member who had him for a year which he said he got off of someone else who owned him for awhile. The second one (spotted) I got is still alive and I've had her for 3 months. I bought another one (green/regular) for my other tank and she died after two weeks.

My first dragonette lived for around 4 years. I bought a mate which I believe was too aggressive and eventually she died from stress.
