keeping mandarin fish together in harmony

[Fable4]

I've got a mandarin and it's doing great, seems healthy and happy. But I was wondering, can I keep two in the same tank, or will they end up fighting each other?

You'll need a proven male and female to keep together, otherwise you'll have problems.

As mentioned, but with a spacious setup featuring loads of live rock and a thriving pod population. In smaller tanks, you'd likely require multiple cultures to keep them well-fed.

unless they're cool with frozen food, lol, but good luck with that. even then, you'd still need some pods on hand, right?

Yeh, they still need a decent amount of pods to be healthy, just pods will take less of a beating if they're also eating frozen.
