Hey I needed copecods to feed my mandarin goby today, and when ***** about no LFS having it to a guy I was buying coral from today, he recommened me to a LFS that actually stocked it.

In discussion with the sales man, he recommened me here.

Thanks,


His name was Randy from Rumford Pet Supply in East Providence, Rhode Island, he said this place was the one to be on, I've been looking for a good forum, but there are so many out there I didn't know which one to join.

If anyone knows his name on here, LMK

Welcome to RS!
Glad you found us.
The difficult thing with the Mandarins is the diet as you know. Keep adding those pods. They eat thousands a day. If you can, add a fuge with cheato. They love to hide and breed in the macro.

:welcomera to reefsanctuary, it's a great forum with lots of very nice members that are really knowledgeable & more than willing to helping in anyway, all you have to do is ask

Nice pics - good luck with your Mandarin, I know I see lots of copepods on sale on e-bay, if that helps any.
