Yea, its about a 50% chance they will eat some. I dont recall if the psychedelic mandarin is better than the green but mine was a standard green.

My green mandarin eats them. However I barely had any before adding it so I cant say whether it has made much of an impact or not. All I know is that I used to be able to find them if I looked hard enough but now I cant.

I got flatworms and got a yellow wrasse and psychedlic mandarin. My yellow wrasse did a fabulous job and I suspected the mandarin had something to do with it too as he is getting fatter and fatter (I don't even feed it - he feeds on copepods and probably flatworms). My yellow wrasse jumped out the boat recently (through egg crate cover, can you believe it), and I found the population of flatworms increasing quite a lot. So, I believe the mandarin helps a bit but definitely the yellow wrasse did an outstanding job!
