    All
    I have a male mandarin that doesn't look as fat and happy as he should sine my reef is rather small and not giving him all the food he needs. Free to whomever has a larger tank. Located in Marion. Text me at 3198998460 if you want him. Thanks.

    Shoot. I have a 120 right here in Marion that would make him happy, but John claimed him first, and I am going out of town in the morning and won't be back until Thursday early evening.

    Not trying to be a downer but I'm not sure a 30 gallon is large enough to sustain a mandarin over time. It may be full of pods now but will quickly be depleted by a hungry fish (they are constantly "hunting"). Rule of thumb I've heard is 100+ lb of liverock to have enough habitat for pods to reproduce enough to maintain a mandarin.

    But, like I said, I don't get back from my trip until Thursday just before 5:00pm... /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/sad.gif

    I take it that he has a new home? If not, I'm back from my trip. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif
