what do you feed a blue mandarin?

I've heard of LFS's suggesting that you can feed these fish but everything I've read is that you do not. They live off of the creatures that live in mature tanks called amphipods and copepods. These are small crustaceans that are in and on your LR/LS from the size smaller than fleas up....

They feed off of pods in the tank and should only be kept in a larg tank that has been up for over a year. Some people convert them to brine, but that the exception rather than the rule. There best kept in a tank using a refugium. HTH
