Welcome aboard, GarrDen79!

You've found one of the very best places to look for answers to all questions reefy!

One note - 46 gallons isn't gigantic when it comes to producing enough 'pods for a mandarinfish. I have a couple of dragonets who get along well in a 65, but also have two refugiums on the tank for additional micro-munchie production. From what I'm given to understand, the target mandarin (the one I have) is less fussy than the "green" mandarin, and will include things like amphipods and red planaria flatworms in its diet, as well as copepods. Either way, they're quietly spectacular fish, and well worth the extra effort it takes to make sure they're happy!

Thanks for the info. I have the one refugium and I'll let it run for awhile to establish a good stock of pods.
