Fish Pics

Just thought I'd update with some new fish pics, and pics of my newest addition!

Just got this Green Mandarin on Saturday. He's very healthy, although I do need to fatten him up. Cool thing about this one, is that he came with a nice-sized bunch of Cheato!!!

Great looking mandarin. Good luck with him!

Thanks!

to put cheato in when shipped is a good idea... Im guessing they did that so just incase he pooped the cheato would absorb it up...

That and he'd have lots of pods to chow down on, I guess!

where are the benthic sharks?

 

[TheSaltwaterGuy]

Do you really have to be this immature? I mean seriously, I was making a point on another thread, comparing the habits of benthic sharks to a certain fish, and you just won't let it go, will you?

Maybe you should join www.sharkraycentral.com to study up on your elasmobranch (meaning all shark and ray families, for those who aren't aware. ) facts, and then get back to me.

ok sonny, nice tank good luck with the fish, I think I remember what its like to be 15 and full of good advice.

Leave the guy alone. He is just sharing his fish with us. There is no need to go around stalking him with stupid comments on a comment that was misconstrued by you.

 

[TheSaltwaterGuy]

Good news!!! She ate some pellet food today, along with a little mysis on the side! I'm so glad! And considering I don't have that many pods in my tank, this is a major milestone for me!

Thanks again for all the comments.

I want to train my mandarin to eat prepared foods. Did you have to put the food right in front of his face?

 

[TheSaltwaterGuy]

Nope. I just overfed the tank a little, so that the other fish wouldn't eat all the food, and he'd pick at some of the food that settled onto the rocks.
