Mandarins

[usatennisfan]

So I nautical got a mated pair of Green Spotted Mardarins from my lfs. I know they are ORAs and in the shop I saw them eat frozen blood worms in a jar, to keep the flow down, and I couldn't walk away from them. My problem is I can't get them eat here in my tank. They are in a pretty busy 56 gallon and I'm wondering if thats why they aren't eating or if it is for another unknown reason. At first my Toby was a little aggressive but now everyone is chill and leaves them alone. Any ideas?

Never mind - I deleted my post. I have nothing good to say about the ORA "eating" mandarins. They should educate the consumer before selling these fish. Good luck with your fish.

Personally I would return them, which is not to say that you can't work it out

Yes, unfortunately they are problematical. I hope the OP is planning to spot feed them 3-4 times daily. Otherwise . . .
