Re: Mandarin Goby @ 6 months ?
Well, whatever (flukes or ich) seems to be clearing up. He's active, and seems to be grazing on the unidentified brown things (biff says they're pods, the LFS says maybe baby snails...). Haven't seen him eat frozen since the previous post, but he's so damn reclusive during feeding time that I can't see what he's doing. I just squirt some of the frozen food back by him and hope for the best.

Re: Mandarin Goby @ 6 months ?
Thought you'd all enjoy an update - the mandarin is still alive, doesn't appear to be wasting - grazes pretty steadily through the day - and if those little brown critters on the glass are pods (and I suspect they are) that must be what he's eating. There are still plenty of them around (very evident 3 days after glass cleaning) so I think this may work out after all... he is one beautiful animal...
