I'm completely aware of the feeding and I have a fuge and pod cultures and since its captive bred it will likely take frozen as wellDespite seemingly everyone trying to keep captive bred mandarins in smaller tanks, I would not recommend them in that tank size, unless you have a big fuge and are willing to constantly feed them.
I have a wild mandarin and he eats frozen spirulina brine shrimp. But from what I've read the captive bred ones still have a hard time getting them to accept frozen.I'm completely aware of the feeding and I have a fuge and pod cultures and since its captive bred it will likely take frozen as well

Hmm I've heard the captive ones are raised on frozen but that may be true idk if im for sure getting oneI have a wild mandarin and he eats frozen spirulina brine shrimp. But from what I've read the captive bred ones still have a hard time getting them to accept frozen.
Any tank pics?
I've read quite a bit of reviews and people still have trouble with captive bred mandarins eating frozen. The way I get them to start eating frozen is with a turkey baster or coral feeder and squirt food towards it. Just have to be patient and make sure you get tigger pods they are known to breed well in tanks and are bigger.Great stocking list, your mandarin will be just fine - captive breds, if they're fed a few times a day do great in smaller tanks - I've gotten them to the point of spawning in tanks 30 gallons and under. 30L is a great tank
