Could one of the mods please delete the above post? how do these people think we won't notice? :rolleyes:
Removed! Ok ty someone removed it, if you had wondered what it was; someone was trying to sell telephones/electronics and that is why I thought it was so ridiculous |

ok..but now Im curious as to what was there...
|
Looking at the Vote Results... I'm curious to know is SeaSerpent really had all those Mandarins! :biggrin:
. |
SeaSerpent is in the 8th grade and his bio says he is new to saltwater. PFFFT you havent had dragonet for 5 years. Ill belive that when my Poop turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbet.
|
Doing well, nice and chubby. Never trained him to eat dried or frozen food, but I've noticed him chow down on the odd CycloPeeze granule when it's close enough for him to stumble across it.
|
Ate frozen food soaked in Selcon. Died carpet surfing. Fat and happy.
|
mandarin lifespan
my mandarin pair are almost at 3 yrs age and still going strong hopefully for long time to come
|
I have/had 3 mandarins. The first one (spotted) ate mysis and pellets and I owned him for about 2 years, I got him from another canreef member who had him for a year which he said he got off of someone else who owned him for awhile. The second one (spotted) I got is still alive and I've had her for 3 months. I bought another one (green/regular) for my other tank and she died after two weeks.
|
current on I've only had in my possession for a month don't know how long they had her prior to me buying the tank
|
My first dragonette lived for around 4 years. I bought a mate which I believe was too aggressive and eventually she died from stress.

Mandarin
We put in a refugium just to support pods for our Mandarin - 8 months now real fat.
|
Alive. Last year it was in a 20g dedicated mandarin tank.
Recently shut that tank down and moved her into my 70 display. |
Ours is @ 2 1/2, was pretty skinty when we rescued her from the now closed(thank God) LFS, plump and happy, eats mysis, hangs out with our red skooter blenny a lot, hunting pods I guess.
|
Lost him a couple years ago, I estimate he was in my tank for about 8 years.
|
I just picked up "Mojo" my male Psychedelic Mandarin. He is chubby right now, so here is to hoping he stays that way.
|
currently still have my mandarin of 3 years ( crossing fingers now )
|
Currently have 2 in my 30 Gal for 9 months. Nice and fat off frozen (fortified). Soon to be moving into my new 60 Gal.
|
Sadly reporting I lost my mandarin. Crushed he pod population before my Refugium and couldn't get him to take frozen :sad:
