Mandarin - To add or not to add?

[jtbadco]

I added a small female Green Mandarin to my 33 gal reef. She was already on frozen and dry foods so feeding was not an issue.

My six-line wrasse was very upset about the mandarins introduction and did try to harass her for days. She just ignored him so it never came to anything. They get along fine now.

My concern is that your six-line is quite large and may be able to do more damage if he does harass the mandarin.

If you do try,...introduce at night after lights out for an hour or so.

You can also create mandarin feeding spots by creating rubble piles where pods can breed in tank. My six-line does not seem to browse at the rubble piles so there is no competition.

You are off topic and frankly ****ing me off.

Mods. How can I delete irrelevant input?

I saw another thread where the op erased unwanted and off topic crap.
