Spotted or Green Mandrin in a Nano (14 gallon)?

Maybe not, but I thought I'd ask. I'd assume you'd need a very established tank with plenty of LR to even consider it. What do you guys think, bad idea?

And a well established separate pod culture. It'd eat its way out of a 14 gal in short order.

he ate all but a few pods in my 29 gal in under a week

neither. That tank is just too small

+1 on all the comments. Unless you can feed the tank with live pods consistently that size is too small to support a large enough population to support a mandarin.
The spotted is a maybe, if you can get him to eat frozen. Its been done before but it depends on how adamant you are about getting a dragonette.
