Posted	Mandarin fish
25-03-2006 19:16 by nemo	where can i get Mandarin fish mail order from i would like a male and female
25-03-2006 20:35 by roy bright	might be China (nemo)
25-03-2006 21:43 by SallyJo	Bought ours from local marine supplier. Make sure there's enough in the tank for them to feed on though. Sadly, ours died after three months. Beautiful fish, though.
26-03-2006 00:29 by roy bright	what do they feed on anyway?
26-03-2006 06:11 by	Mandarin fish feed on copepods from the live rock, they search the rock constantly for it, they are not the easiest marine fish to keep but they are beautiful looking fish

27-03-2006 08:37 by Alan	To be succesful you need a way of making frozen food behave like live food get this right and you will quickly get them fat I managed it sadly I lost the fat little blighter when a tang pegged it under all of my rock work I had no way of getting it out carried out massive water changes and the skimmer was going nuts but I couldn't keep up with the unpleasant problem.

28-03-2006 13:57 by phil taylor	I'm thinking of getting one of these I have a few clumps of live rock but the tanks only a couple of months old what exactly are copepods
