So I picked up a red mandarin the other day from the LFS... he gave me a good deal on it because its a little skinny and their fish tanks have copper in them to kill Ick and other crap off, but that also kills off the pods so its slightly starved.
My question is, I was looking at him today (i know all they eat is pods) and he is picking at the rocks a lot. Is he finding pods? Or is he eating other stuff off the rocks??
I have a fuge set up and ive seen copepods in the tank, and also some monster amphipods in the sump... but it doesnt seem like he is picking up pods off the rocks... unless they are really tiny?? Thanks!
