Today I went and bought some frozen brine shrimp to feed my little guy. I defrosted it and put it in a little pipet and shot it at the mandarin. He took a look at it and gulped up about 3 pieces egarly. I was toooo excited when I seen him suck it up!:dance: The only problem I have is the other...

Hello everyone, I have 90g 115# LR, 3-4" LSB (see profile pics) and it is teaming with copods and micro-organisms. I currently have a green mandarin and he is very very happy. Swims around everywhere, loves being the center of attention, and his belly is stuffed. The question I have is will a...

Does anyone who is running bb have a mandarin? I have been bb for a little over a month and still am getting used to it. I am worried that without any sand in my display or refugium that I might not have enough pods for him to eat. I don't have a ton of rock either which is great for my flow...

Specs: 55 gallon 75 lbs live rock (20lbs purchased live the rest added as based about a month ago) 3 inch sand bed (Live) Water Parameters - Good haha I am interested in adding a Mandarin Dragonet, I have done a lot of research on them and the opinions seem to be split. While concurring on...

... that you have ever given a fish of yours? Cmon, you know a lot of us do it - we think of stupid names like Nemo for our clown. Here I'd love to see people list the kind of fish, and their given name (plus any relevant story as to how the said fish acquired the name). In college I had a...

Well, I have no clue what the problem was. As some of you have read; Chubster was a brand new spotted mandarin addition. He was purchased on Feb. 15. He was eating great at the store, and in my tank too. Within 15 seconds of adding him to the tank, he was wolfing down 'pods. The...

Now while in selecting of which Anthias species I feel better for either 180 or 240 due to the fish maximum growth. And while listing these I began thinking that I will forget on the idea of either a dwarf or middle size growing angelfish due to tank space and also that most any angel I can...

It has been a long time since I've shared any pictures of my tanks. I don't fiddle around with them much. I just let the coral and fish grow. My 120 will be three years old in January. Here's what it looked like shortly after it was set up: Here we are this evening (anyone want some...

so i did it... i got myself a spotted mandarin! i believe the tank has matured enough to keep him (or her) happy. unfortunately, it disappeared behind the rocks, so no picture today. i think that i'm close to fully stocked the way i like it now. 90 gallon tank; maybe one or two more smallish...

Hi I have a 75 gallon with a wetdry. It has a Clowntrigger, green spotted mandarin goby, falcos hawkfish, and a snowflake eel in it. My question is I have all this purple and brown hairy algae growing everywhere, what do you guys think it is and how do I get rid of it?

I thought i was getting rid of them, but there back :mad: i do not want to dose flatworm-exit into the main system. & my LFS is having probs getting a wrasse fish, is there anything else i can do to rid these things, i was thinking some kind of dip, that would not hurt the coral, & not have to...

Hey i read a post on here where someone purchased a mandarin that ate flakes from a website that supports us can anyone give me the info on which site it was.

I was up in the middle of the night looking at my 100g tank and saw an amazing number of copepods. I never see them during the day of course. Is there such a thing as too many? What are some really good copepod eating fish that are reef safe and non-aggressive? Currently stocked with: 1 yellow...

Good Morning Stooges!:wavey: I can't believe that Friday has FINALLY made it here! It has been a very long 12 days!

I just found out I will be leaving town, and have to sell off all my reef stuff. I have 3 aquaria. I have not had a lot of time to keep up with the cosmetic appearance of these tanks lately, with the result that there is a moderate bubble algae problem in one. Otherwise everything is healthy...

Well I got a 4 gallon Finnex nano tank for Father's Day. It came with a HOB filter ~30GPH, and 18W 50/50 PC bulb. It's at my office at work so I have something to look at during the day. I filled up with salt water this morning and got everything wired. There's also a 25 watt heater in...
