My new Mandarin

[BigH55]

So I decided to get a mandarin for my son. I put him into my frag tank and the first thing he did was swim up by the overflow and swoosh away he went into the sump. After taking all the LR out of the sump, he then decided to jump into the baffles and travel into the the skimmer section of the sump. After trying to get him out of there he them rode the second set of baffles into the return area. After swirling around for awile he.......Tune in next week for the epic conclusion of the Mandarin. Will he make it or will he meet his end in the impeller. Same fish time, same fish channel.:shock:
