Anyone else's mandarin taken to displaying anytime you're near the tank? http://s276.photobucket.com/user/nlaidlaw1/media/Tank%20Shots/84A7E7A5-C19D-41F7-B6E3-62929FE17F97.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  http://s276.photobucket.com/user/nlaidlaw1/media/Tank%20Shots/A8959D72-9DEA-49F2-BC51-2CFB3794AD2B.jpg.html" rel="nofollow">  ------------- Was that in there yesterday?

Won't eat frozen yet, though I'm working on that. ------------- Was that in there yesterday? Casper--WY windier than ? Down to a 20, soon to double or nothing |

That's a male, I have a female so it does not do that, but does flare her fins. Good luck getting it to eat frozen, I've had mine a year and it will not eat frozen (well she eats Nutramar Ova prawn roe but any mandarin will eat that) at least she wont eat mysis and such. ------------- 65g Reef |

Mine does that every time I come near the tank, by far my favorite fish. Mine eats frozen food as its main source of food. When he eats it makes a loud click when he snaps at the food. Its impressive. I used to work in Riverton, WY too.. ------------- http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=65068&title=helipirates-38-g-nuvo |

let's hope not mark--because either that is one messed up fish, or I better start taking a good look in the mirror. . .  ------------- Was that in there yesterday? Casper--WY windier than ? Down to a 20, soon to double or nothing |
