Do you have a Mandarin?

[reefwars]

im in the same boat as you pat my 90g is teeming with life both in the display and def in the fuge , my sixline does nothing to it that i notice in facet hes very fat and now the same with the mandarin both are bursting at the stomach and still every day i notice an abundance of pods.


makes me wonder because they are so fat is it possible for them to over feed on pods to the pint where they get sick or cant function right??

my mandarin never leaves the one side of the tank very often so that tells me that he gets enough food just from that area alone, the sixline is more open water and since hes so quick he travels the whole tank

I would assume that when full, they stop eating. Can you imagine a bunch of mandys fat footing around the reef? LOL.

I think I will obtain one.... maybe. In a while. Still worry about the wrasse.
