TJ_Burton Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 I just heard from a fairly reliable sorce that Psychidellic and/or Spotted Mandrin Goby's can and will eat Red Plenaria (sp?) Flatworms... Anyone heard of this? Link to comment
Ann Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 Yup it does happen, however it varies from fish to fish. You could get one that ate them but just as easily you could get one that doesn't. It's pot luck really. Best regards Ann Link to comment

NanoReefTexas Posted November 28, 2004 Share Posted November 28, 2004 Don't risk getting one unless you have an ample pod population, and a tank of at least 30 gallons with the 2 # per gallon of LR (giving you 60 #) rule established for a minimum of 6 months. It is far more likely that your mandarin dragonet (commonly mislabled as a goby) will starve than be one of the extremely few that actually eats something aside from pods. Link to comment
Myout Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 I found (essentiallivefoods.com) where you can buy copepods, has a link to how to do your own hatchery as well. Anybody tried this??? I would like to keep this fish but only if this method of growing copepods is truly possible so that food was always available... Ideas anyone??? Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 You could do it... butI'd expect to need about ten ten gallon tanks and one or two hours a day... hehe its up to you! Link to comment
