    I have been looking for almost a year now and finally have found one. A non food picky green mandarin. He eats frozen/garlic soaked pellet and even if a piece a flake falls near him he gobbles it up. He is already quite chunky. I feel very lucky never thought i would find one.;D Oh and pictures coming tonight or tomorrow depending on when i get out of work.

    it is not an ora mandarin i just have been searching lfs's around the area for about a year. and found him at a very small one that only has like 15 active salt tanks and they have 3. 2 getting skinny and this chubby one. i asked if he could feed him and out he came started eating frozen right away i know he would be mine. come to find out hes not picky at all just like me loves all food.
