hi question about mandarins
hi , had my tank up for almost a year have plenty of live rock
all along my glass i have pods little white bugs, i bought a mandarin because i thought he would have enough food, he seems to be finding food hes pecking at the rocks alot but he still looks like his stomach is shrunk he has good color, ive tried to target feed him with live hatched brine shrimp, i still see lots of bugs crawling around, should i start a rubble pile in the back and put some mysis in that ,well if he doesnt fatten up soon im going to return him.but what confuses me is theres quite a bit of pods around still or so itseems anyways any suggestions?

It's possible that he went a while without food at the store, so tha might be the cause of the sunken stomach. If you can see it eating and there is lots of food, I'd say wait a while. What size tank was this in?

Mandrins, ei dragonets are difficult to keep.....NOT
like all of gods creatures feed the hell out of them and they are happy stick your head in the tank, what is the size of your mandrins mouth  .... that is what you are feeding DOUG .....love the blood worms your right just like slurping noodles, al dente  LOL
