I too have tried them without success and will not try them again.
I think that the problem with them is collecting shipping and feeding. Cyanide is used to catch fish that are hiding in the coral. For example all cryptic wrasse like 6 lines and leopards are cyanide caught because they are so difficult to get out of the coral rock. It is best to avoid them because we know they are cyanide caught. Mandarins are the same except that some fishers are using a stick with a prong on it to catch them successfully.

This is an excellent thread because the posters are being candid about their experience. Many have tried several times.
Too often, like the recent posting on wrasse, the only reefers who comment on the post are the rare reefers that have success (for example with leopard wrasse. I have not been successful and have tried a couple of times and the authors warn that these fish are difficult to keep alive. We should try to post our own bad experience with very difficult fish as newbies are left with the wrong impression.
