Also known as the Psychedelic Mandarinfish or Picture Dragonet, this Western Pacific native captivates with its intricate patterning and graceful, elongated fins. This is a fish for the dedicated aquarist. It thrives in established reef systems of 30 gallons or larger with live substrate, abundant rockwork, and plenty of refugium space. While moderately hardy when given proper care and a stable environment, the Spotted Mandarin demands a specialized diet of live, vitamin-enriched foods—primarily copepods, amphipods, and live brine shrimp supplemented with black worms. It will forage naturally on live rock and sand, making a mature, well-established tank essential. Peaceful toward most tankmates, it shows minimal aggression except toward its own kind. A remarkable bonus: this species has been known to spawn successfully in captivity, rewarding patient hobbyists with one of the reef's most rewarding breeding experiences. Ideal for aquarists seeking a showpiece fish that rewards meticulous care with unmatched beauty and natural behavior.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saltwater Reef Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46572184797374,"sku":"SGSMG350","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/1541\/4462\/files\/SpottedMandarin-600x315w.jpg?v=1775601342","url":"https:\/\/saltwaterreefcoshop.com\/products\/green-spotted-mandarin-goby","provider":"Saltwater Reef Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
