Well, my poor foolish Wrasse decided to go carpet surfing last week, I still don't know how he did it either. :confused:
But that's not the question, I think I may steer clear of wrasses for awhile.

Well, since I have a very healthy population of pods (in my DT and fuge) and since I no longer have a wrasse eating them all up, I was thinking about trying my luck with a Mandarin. But my main fear is wheteher or not my Midas Blenny will pick on him. I know that the Midas Blenny is prone to nipping at some gobies and firefish... does anyone have any experience, do you think he will pick on a Mandarin?

It may be a tight squeeze in a 55. The Blenny is somewhat territorial and may tend to bully the Dragonet. Much depends on that pod population in the fuge. If it is large it may not be a problem but if it declines then a fight may ensue.
