You are going to hear it of course..."Wait 6 months for the tank to be established before you even think of a Mandarin." ATS will help, but you still gotta give it just a little time to get established, as well. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, but you know you are going to hear it.

Oh, and...best of luck with the tank. Sounds like fun. Gonna have to do a bigger tank myself, someday. I really dig an Anthias school. Which flavor are you considering? Go with a DSB and get a jawfish. Any of those fish that tunnel/burrow are just cool beans.
