Sorry to hear that, your yellow will eventually outgrow the 70g hopefully when that happens you will re-home it.

Find a mandarin that eats frozen (that you can make sure you get the frozen food to it, before the others eat it) and you should be ok.

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

Don't put a tang in a situation were people feel the need to say something and you wont have to worry about it. When people see an injustice being done, people will feel the need to speak out about it.

Also for the record in the bold part (in case you didn't see it before) of my original post I did answer your question, so not off topic.

Six lines can be very aggressive. Thats a fact I have seen and read about. I know of people who have taken tanks apart to remove them. {part of why I said be careful if adding one for flatworms}.

They compete for the same food as mandarins, thus always the possibility of eliminating the mandarin, so less competition for that food source. Such as picking their eyeballs out.

Agreed. But I still feel that I can support the pod population.

Who knows.

Mines favorite is Formula One Marine Pellets. They collect in one end from the current and she knew exactly where.

Or did, before we took her to Mikes 240g where she is now cuddled up to her boyfriend.
