Default Copepods

Your gonna be surprised at how many pods a mandarinis capable of

I have a mandarin in a 10 gal tank by itself. Yep thats not a typo
either and its been in there for over a year now and doing fine. Its
never been fed anything that I put into the tank like brine etc on a
routine basis.


That's great news for me, if I understand you correctly. Your 10 gallon tank
maintains an adequate supply of copepods for one mandarin? Then my 125 gallon
with ~130 pounds of live rock should be capable of supporting two. Is there
anything special you're doing, other than having a bunch of live rock in there?
