Mandarin Goby Care

[Royal Aquariums]

Just wondering who has experience with mandarin gobies, how they go about keeping them well fed? I got a female about a month ago and she is doing alright but I think she could be fatter. My pod population has basically diminished in this time, im thinking i will have to add some live pods to my refugium. There are probably a few people on here that have experience with these fish. What's everyone else doing?

I found that a mandarin will survive just fine in a 100gal+ established system unless there is competition for pods.  A mandarin and a 6-line is a bad combo.

I have mine in a 29gal nano cube. I do use Tiger Pods a lot to be sure he is fed. He as well looks kind of skinny. Speaking of that, I am almost done the current bottle, will have to hit up IA soon as that is where I normally get it shipped from.
