JeffYoshiyuki Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I instantly called the LFS that had it, he was closed for the whole day but he was there acclimating a new delivery, I scurried over there and asked him if I could drop masago (fish eggs) into the tank he told me it was eating rod's original food for a couple days and he showed me and sure enough it ate rods food right in front of my eyes. its a yellow mandarin (spotted). $16! very healthy I even fed him rods when i got home as well!.

mrbigshot Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 generally adult's will eat prepared foods, also it seems males are far easier to get to take prepared. ora sells tank rased that eat prepared foods but there $50 so you got a good deal. if you look at the dorsal fin does the front of it raise up with a small spike like in the picture? if so than its a male, if not its a female and its much harder to get females to survive eating prepared foods.
