ORA Mandarin Dragonets!!!!!

[rgonzalez]

I'm getting my spotted one today. I'm friggin stoked!!

I asked Bio-Reef here in Jax if they received any of the red types and they said no, ORA only sent them the 'target' ones.

They said hopefully their shipment this week will have some of them in it.

Maybe ORA is just being stingey

I never have liked the look of the target ones, but I saw the ORA ones and... WOW, they did look amazing.

So here's the video of my guy swimming in his bag prior to being placed in the tank:

Here's a picture of my ORA mandarin. He's tiny. The picture is of him, in a standard sized dixie cup, getting ready to be placed in my frag tank.

Has anyone seen one of these little guys eat pellets?

Mine ignores pellets(NLS small fish formula). Follows mysid but never seems to take any. Hopefully it will take one or the other soon as pods are limited in his tank. I was really banking on the "accepting pellets" aspect.

I'm a better speller THAN you. My point?

I also haven't noticed my mandarin eating any pellets yet. Does look like he is picking at pods on the rock and sand though.

did you ask lfs to show you the fish eating pellets? since that's the whole point of paying the premium.

They don't leave ORA to be shipped unless they eat pellets.

 

[d0ughb0y]

yes we can say that, but the fish is still shipped and can be stressed, so its usually good practice to ask LFS to show you the (expensive) fish is eating, more so if the LFS has no money back guarantee policy.
