we've had our tank set up and running since
March 30, 2002. we have approx 40lbs of LR in there so far...40lbs still curing. we have about 3-4" of live sand in the bottom. we have all kinds of algae growing on the LR and the LR we have has lots of life on it. also have what we thought were little shrimp, but the more I'm reading on here figure they're probably
copapods(?). Anyway, we were told that a tank has to be established for at least 6 months to put a mandarin in it or it will starve to death? How do you know when for sure a tank is really ready to put something like that in there?
