Mine eats anything small enough to fit in its mouth. Eats nori bits floating by it even.

I have had one in my 29g biocube for a year now with only a few shrimp, hippo tang and a percula clown. The mandarin loves his brine and mysis mix

I occasionally buy reef stew from my LFS,(live pods, rotifers,and brine) for my corals. He loves to hunt the pods but, realy loves his frozen blood worms.

very interesting poll results you have over a 60% chance of your mandarin eating something other than copepods

i would be interested to know if the sex of the fish makes any difference. Are most of these males?
