I don't have 2 mandarins, but I have a mandarin and a scooter blenny (which are still the same family) and my 230g was not big enough for the both of them. They were introduced at the same time but my mandarin continued to chase my scooter down the overflow into the sump, so in fear of scooter being found on the floor one day he nows lives in the `fuge.

Default Manderins and Blenny's

Well I have 2 manderins..male+female, they hang out and sometimes they don't, I also have 3 scooter blenny's as well. They are not interested in each other at all. The manderins are fed with Marine formula 1+2 along with mysis and there is a healthy batch of copepods as well that they seem to be doing well on. I fed the manderins at first with the jar method but for the most part they are self sufficient now..fat and healthy for about 6 months. All this in a 72g bowfront. So for now all is very good with them. I will also say that the first manderin I initially bought from a LFS didn't make it a week. It wouldn't eat no matter what I tried. So I think the message is that all fish can act differently no matter what.
