I actually was tempted to purchase that pair.. but $200 is just a little too much.

Very unusual to see a pair that is captive bred.

ORA breeds them so better chances of pairing mandarins

Is that the normal price for ORA captive bred mandarins? It seems pricey.

Diver den premium... pairing mandarins isn't hard. Just need to make sure only male in tank.

80$ is a ballpark for them so 200$ for a bonded pair doesn’t seem insane by those standards, which are insane lol

What type of environment do manadarins prefer, I want to eventually get one or a pair in my tank. Going to wait to figure out a good way to raise enough pods to support them, but Ora ones seem to take pellets

Do not forget you will need pods

@max_nano for extra padding, you can build and seed a pod hotel. You can also feed frozen shrimp eggs or cyclops /mysis.

Over time, the mandarin may start taking pellets like one mine did, too.

Sadly, i got spotted mandarin with my recent LA order but it didn't make it past 24 hours mark, despite acclimation and all. And, i have plenty of pods too... shame - was a beautiful one too.

Pods?

Pods?

I think you smoke those for best effects.
