Mandarins are hard to keep, but not imposible. You can train them to eat frozen and they can do quite well . Ive got mine in a 15 gal ( no fuge /sump ) and she has been eating frozen blood worms since day 1 . They eat slow so you cant have agressive feeding fish , and competion for pods isnt good either.
