Cheers!

Your tank might be too small.. and too young to keep a healthy pod population...you may see some now..and think there are lots... but once you get the mandarin goby...it will clear out your pod population in couple weeks... then it will start to starve....

to keep a mandarin really good and long, you need to train it to eat frozen foods, and can't rely on pod population

I agree,they also are eating ARCTI-PODS.

I would not aquire this fish just to try it or because they are so beautiful. Be patient.

Oh Ya I am not looking at getting one right away...In fact I was given a 75 gal tank with all the fixin's so I am looking at upgrading to that puppy...but not for a bit...I was just curious if those pods were growing those little critters or if they were an upcoming coral of some kind...again sorry for the hijack...

Free bump!

Cheers!
