    how did you get your mandarin to feed on somthing other than pods

    I guess I just lucked out. Mine is getting fat on mysid shrimp. He was only about a inch long when I got him, so I think since he was such a baby, that maybe he took to it easier???

    really need this question about ich answered??

    OK, but colds, flu's etc are all virus's, which can be influenced by stress factors. But say a parasite like e.g. ringworm... that is picked up by contact because it is a parasite, nothing to do with stress,right? So basically what you are saying is that a tank that has the same fish for over...

    I have a question about pond fish

    Dont just take my word on this. But from what I know if the fish are cold and swimming sluggishly then they can't digest their food. My goldfish are kept just above freezing all winter and not fed. I start feeding them when I put them out and its warm. Then they need quite a bit. I guess it...

    How often do you all feed your fish and what do you feed them

    I think you can feed as often as you wish. The trick is not how often but how much?? The best tank I ever had (with no water problems ever) was my fresh water tank in which I fed the fish at least 4 times per day..sometimes 5 or 6. But always a tiny small amount.
