yeh i would

personlly i think manderins should be kept in large tanks for there feeding habbits so yes i would put him in

Watch him with the anemone, anemones can easily swallow the slow moving Mandarin. I would also watch him with the Lionfish. If he can fit in their mouths he is at risk as he will not move very fast.

well he may fit in his mouth but so will the cleaner shrimp i have that i cannot catch
so hed be better off in the 100 gallon but the lion fish and the nem

i dont know what to do

 

[TigerIssey]

It will depend on the size of them Nem, how well fed it is and where about in the tank the nem is cited. Is it a bubble tip or another type?? Mandarins feed close to the ground and around lower rock work, it would depend on the nem I think.

I would be worried about the lionfish though.

 

[bae1994]

the nem is at the top of the tank and my tanks 2 ft high
the nem is a caribean pink tipped anemone and the lion tends to be at the top so he can get the food quicker

 

[bae1994]

i dont know

 

[owlbassboy]

i would put it in mate as long as you feed your nem it shouldnt touch it.
i would doubt fuzzy lions would be able to eat a mandarin

 

[bae1994]

well im pretty sure he could be he could also eat the cleaner shrimp

 

[bagu]

i would try it mate

i think the mandy would sense danger anyway

there is also alot of space and im sure the mandy would find a nice spot to chill in

 

[bae1994]

he eats frozen but it doesnt count as a full diet

 

[bae1994]

hes now floating in the 100 gallon (eg aclymatising in a floating bag)
