Do you even know how these fish are collected? I’d rather pay extra to know that my fish was not speared with a paper clip, taken from its home on the reef, and then nearly starved to death while being shipped around the world. Once arriving at the US wholesaler it starves some more while watching hundreds of its own kind die around it. Then it gets to stress and starve once more before arriving to your home aquarium. Yup, I will stick with my happy ORA mandarin.
@PowerfulProlifera I agree with you, but thats how aquarium raised fishes come to be.How many mandarins you think ORA killed so you can get your 60 dollar fish that might not even eat frozen food? it really is not guarantee on any saltwater fish anywhere even ORA. I read in forums some of these fishes dont eat once they are shipped, it is a fish that still needs years or captive breeding.
nice! I just got one thats very young like these guys, And he is eating frozen foods already, is there a chance to get him to take flakes or pellets, if so how do I go about it?
Alright. So,when I got my ora green Mandarin,he went after my plentyful copepod population.(as planned) However fat he may be,the population in falling swiftly and he refuses to eat frozen mysis. Im trying Marine caviar...any tips?
I bought one and dosed my tank with copepods a couple days after i got him and he seems to eat less prepared foods and picks at the rocks more. Dont think this is right.
I have had an ORA spotted mandarin in my reef for 1 week now and he is eating OVA! I am so happy!

None of the 3 I've purchase had ever been excited by nutramar ova in any presentation. Only one eats pellets and the other two have died.
