The Spotted Mandarin, also called the Picturesque Mandarinfish, is covered in intricate spotted patterning in green, orange, and blue, among the most vividly patterned fish in the hobby. Like other mandarins, it feeds primarily on live copepods and other tiny invertebrates, so it does best in a mature, well-established tank with a healthy population of live rock and pods to graze on.
