Description
The Green Mandarin Dragonet (Synchiropus splendidus) is a captivating and vibrant species known for its intricate patterns of green, blue, and orange. This dragonet boasts an elegant and graceful form, making it a popular addition to reef aquariums.
This peaceful species thrives in well-established aquariums with live rock that offers a natural source of small live prey, such as copepods and amphipods. The Green Mandarin Dragonet is reef-safe and poses no threat to corals or other invertebrates.
Feeding this carnivorous species can be a challenge, as it prefers live foods, but it can sometimes adapt to frozen or prepared foods in captivity. This fish is best suited for experienced aquarists who can provide the right environment and care.
