Great looking Target Mandarin Beamer3 :bowdown:
Has your tank been set up long enough to keep a mandarin? Usually around 6 months is the bare minimum. They need lots of pods since they won't eat prepared foods 99% of the time.
Edit: Sorry, just noticed your join date was august, so that's probably when you set up your tank. First thing I saw was the "Experience in reefing - Not that long" and figured it's a brand new tank.

Solar is right if your fish isnt eating mysis shrimp then you will need pods for him to eat. If you dont have pods he will more then likely perish. :frustrat:

Awesome mandarin!! I'd really like to get one myself, but not until my tank is a little more stable.

Steve, how's the little guy doing since you put him in the tank yesterday? Hopefully he's moving around more and not hiding as much.
