Seems to be a common thread lately, "My mandarins wasting away etc........" Feel free to post the secrets of your success, or the amount of heart break you had.
I've had mine for about 8 months now. He's in a 55 with 100 lbs lr and will only eat pods and fresh hatched brine. He's fat and sassy ( well as sassy as a manderin can be)
Mine eats live brine shrimp and pods all day. Had him for four months of so and as far as I can tell very happy.
Probably die tonite cause I answered this.........lol
...knock on wood.
approaching 3 months now. 54 Gallon, 60 lbs LR, 80 lbs, LS. 5 gallon DIY amateur ( probably not effective Fuge ). She is doing great so far... hope she can make it ! Lots of growth in the 3 month frame, bought her very small....

I have mine for over 1 yr. Mine has always taken to frozen brine, mysis, and live brine. I also keep a 10 gallon tank with LR and sand and trade rocks in and out on a reg basis to keep some pods in my main tank.
