My mandarin eating from my hand

I forget who said he didn't believe it so here he is. Sony ain't shy.

Got him from New World on 38th last year. Trying to get him to eat flakes or pellets.

Not to be outdone, Samsung wanted a video too. He actually bites my fingers as Sony just grabs the food from it.

Yeah, do they train all their fish to do that?

haha that is very cool! My midas blenny likes to eat out of my hand. Now you have me tempted to see if the mandarin will. what were you feeding the mandarin?

 

[aquascaper82]

is he captive bred??

They trained me to go there at least once a week, even in this weather.

Frozen brine with selcon. When I got back from vacation he stopped eating the mysis. I hope he can survive on the small amount of pods (the little macro i have in the tiny fuge can only produce so much) and brine.

No, I wanted a tank bred one but they weren't available from Ora yet, so I got a wild one and was lucky.
