My personal opinion is that even if you have a huge "supply" of pods the mandarin may deplete the pods supply in time if that is ALL he/she is eating. Your chances are significantly higher if you find a Mandarin already eating frozen. I have kept a Mandarin for nearly 2 years now and he is HUGE but he eats mysis really well. AND I OVERFEED to be sure he gets some. They are a slow eater and the mysis needs to float right down infront of them.
