Hey guys, I’m mooking into getting a ruby red dragonet from my lfs. I have a refugium all set up and running with tons of pods. I would eventually like to get him onto mysis, but was also wondering if brine would work? I’ve read that they can eat them, but how does the nutrition of the two foods...
I have a 30 gallon frag tank, I have a healthy supply of brine shrimp and copepods , I breed them in my garage. I've successfully kept a Mandarin dragonet alive for two years now, first in my 50 gallon tank, and now it's doing well in my upgraded 100 gallon. Keeping pods has never been a problem...
Just recently acquired a green mandarin dragonet, and would like to introduce copepods to my tank to give him a great food option. However, I have no idea what I'm doing with these little guys. I have a 110gal, plenty of live rock and substrate... I purchased Sustainable Aquatics Copepods...
Ive been researching good ways to fatten up my mandarin dragonetts as their weight is going up and down a lot lately I know I will need to find another method of feeding them. I tried Paul B's brine shrimp feeder however I couldn't get all the exactly correct materials and my clownfish decided...

first, I thought this little guy was a blenny, but now I'm thinking it's a male spotted Dragonet. Correct? 2nd, while he never stressed out my female Green Mandarin Dragonet, the Mandarin died. Could it be possible that he and her lowered the population of copepods in the tank and therefore...
I had a dragonet when I first started the hobby in a 30 gallon tank. It was my first fishkeeping mistake. It was no where near established, so the dragonet eat for a few weeks and I could tell it wasn’t going as good as it could have, so I gave it to a friend who had a good copepod population...
My wife’s male Ruby Red Dragonet, Rubicon, has a large bruise under his chin following a water change. He’s breathing rapidly, lethargic, and disinterested in food. She noticed a couple hours ago that he was just resting under the bridge of her rock-work, not chasing food or dancing with his...

Background: So I bought a captive bred red mandarin dragonet from my LFS for about $300. I bought her a year ago, when captive bred mandarins were a thing. She was very small when I got her, now she's about two inches. She occasionally eats pellets. Sometimes she would gobble them up, sometimes...
