RLaForce Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Just caught my mandarin's mating, and was wondering if anyone knew anything about how to raise them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barelycuda Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Congratulations. You should check out www.marinebreeder.org . That is the MOFIB site and there are a number of people that are/have bread mandarins. I believe that you will have to get a copepod culture going to raise the young. Also you may want to check out the book "The Complete Illustrated Breeder's Guide to Marine Aquarium Fishes" by Matthew Wittenrich. You can also do a google search on matt wittenrich with the mandaring gobies as he has personally reared the babies. Best of luck.
