SleepsWithFish said:Cool! I'll take a look at your photo on my computer(app is being stupid) I just want my schedule have viewing time at from 6-10pm because that's when well be enjoying it most. So...
Blues: 11am-10pm
Whites: 12pm-9pm
Lunars: 10pm-7am
What do you think? That's 11 hours of full light.
carey said:I would try the shorter duration and if your corals need more light you can always go up in time or if you develop algae issues cut back the time.
As far as a mandarin, i say wait it out for a few months, like you said 8-10 months and go from there. If youre system can support one then theres no reason you shouldnt get one.
SleepsWithFish said:You just made my day so how hard is it to get a pod population going in a tank that small? I read that mandarins are VERY hardy as long as there's enough food.
carey said:I started with established rock that already had pods and I have a small fuge in the back of my biocube. Luckily I had enough for the scooter and mandarin to eat while they were being weaned onto frozen food. If you wanted one i would look at the ORA ones, they seem to have a better chance of eating regular food.
