ORA breeding mandarin dragonets

Captive bred mandarin gobies soon commercially available from ORA


Couldn't find the original article(or this may be it) and not sure if this has already been posted but sounds like good news to me.

Very cool!

Yeah, if they can get captive bred mandarins eating frozen/pellet food before they even get to their destination that would be a big step forward. Not to mention reduced need to capture from the wild.

Very glad its out - I heard about this months ago but ORA asked for retailers not to discuss it. I have been wanting my hands on one forever it seems!

Great news indeed

yea it would be cool....my old mandarin ate off the tweesers, at dry food, etc.....it got these weird boils, not tumors, an the one on his forehead poped and he died

There is a group that has been breeding mandarins for a couple of years now. I got to see them at several different ages when I was at MACNA a couple of years ago. I haven't seen them available though so this would be really cool.

Matt wittenrich had bread them and wrote an article in coral magazine about it. This is another leap forward for our hobby!!!
