I was at the local Petco near my work with a co-worker (he just started the whole fishkeeping thing), helping him pick out a good fish to start with and what do you think I see? A green mandarin in a tank, I have been back a few times in the last 3-4 weeks and it is still there. So i asked one of the girls at the store what they feed him, her reply was bloodworms and brine shrimp. Does that seem right? How long does it take a fish to starve? If they have had it for a month, then they must be able to feed it? TIA
