2 tank raised perculas introduced at the same time should be alright, but defitnately not the mandarin, these usually only eat pods unless you can get them to eat brine or mysis shrimp and then if yours only chooses to eat pods, you need to an established pod population that is constantly being replenished via a refugium. Or else your mandarin will starve to death.

Well the refugium will be a haven for pods and macro algaes to grow, then some of the pods will make it into the display via the output of the fuge.

A mandarin may not be the best of choices like stated before, but some dragonets will accept frozen foods. I would still recommend a large ammount of LR and fuge, but it is possible. Just make sure that you actually witness it feeding on frozen foods at the fish store before you buy it.
