    Green Mandarin

    Yes he is tank bred but Saltwater.com told me he only accepts pods. No there isn't any rock or substrate in my QT. I didn't think I would need it in there since I'm keeping him there for only a couple weeks. I made a separate breeding tank for the tigger pods and tisbe pods separately.

    Green Mandarin

    OK so I have a mandarin in a 5 gallon QT tank. I just received two 6oz. bottles of tigger pods. How much should I feed this litlte guy? Should I start with just half of one of the bottles? There are newly hatched brine in the QT as well but he seems to have lost interest in them.

    Green Mandarin

    My camera broke last week….what a coincidence. The female with the "shedding" died yesterday AM. I had already started a medicated treatment in the water but she was already too weak. I'm still treating the male just in case (Lifeguard by Instant Ocean) and he seems to be doing well for now.

    Copepods

    OK everyone....I have decided to by a mated pair of green mandarins. I want to culture my own pods and I'm wondering if it is really necessary to feed them phyto or can I get away with just feeding small amounts of fish food?

    New refractometer & RODI

    So I just bought a refractometer & 4 stage RODI PLUS with water saver kit that were on sale on Bulk Reef Supply's site.

    Bleaching Guttatus

    OK ladies and gents......No one has answered this question so I talked to my buddy who has been doing corals for over 30 yrs.
