Re: Mandarin Goby @ 6 months ?
Thanks, everybody, for the words of encouragement - a big day in the tank today - a (VERY) good friend bought a huge bubble coral, and we also picked up a sunflower coral (GORGEOUS)... and (most importantly) found the best LFS shop in town. Bought some ArcticPods (everybody loved this - anybody out there have any thoughts about this product)...and a fresh bottle of Tigger pods, which the MG was happy about. I'll get some pics shortly...

Re: Mandarin Goby @ 6 months ?
A sun coral?Is you crazy!!!!!
All they do is eat and eat,then eat some more. I haven't tried any store bought pods yet.Its to expensive,I'm sure the Mandarin will enjoy eating them.

Re: Mandarin Goby @ 6 months ?
By sunflower coral, you mean sun coral? Sun corals are non-photosynthetic and therefore need to be fed by hand daily. Have fun! Freak has a couple, they're his babies.
I've used Arcti-Pods and Tigger Pods. My fish love them.

Re: Mandarin Goby @ 6 months ?
Great colors on the fish.
Three times a week sounds about right for the sun.I'm sure it wouldn't mine getting fed everyday.

Re: Mandarin Goby @ 6 months ?
great pics. I love the flame angel. those sun corals are a pain and that is why I don't have one. they seem to stay closed up until you feed them, then they close up again.
