{"product_id":"spotted-mandarin","title":"Spotted Mandarin","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"32\"\u003eThe Spotted Mandarin, or Target Mandarin, is a psychedelic wonder of the reef. Its body is a maze of green, orange, and turquoise \"target\" spots outlined in deep blue and black. Unlike most fish, mandarins do not have scales but instead have a thick, foul-tasting mucus coat that protects them from parasites and predators. They are slow-moving \"hovercrafts\" that spend every waking second hunting for live copepods among the rockwork. They are notoriously difficult to feed because they typically refuse prepared foods, making them suitable only for very mature reef tanks with a massive and self-sustaining population of pods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable data-path-to-node=\"33\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,1,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,1,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eScientific Name\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,1,1,0\"\u003e\u003ci data-path-to-node=\"33,1,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSynchiropus picturatus\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,2,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,2,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eColour\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,2,1,0\"\u003eGreen with orange and blue targets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,3,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,3,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eShape\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,3,1,0\"\u003eStocky, flattened with large pelvic fins.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,4,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eLocation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,4,1,0\"\u003eIndo-Pacific \/ Western Pacific.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,5,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDiet\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,5,1,0\"\u003eCarnivore (Strictly Live Copepods).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,6,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWater Temp\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,6,1,0\"\u003e24°C – 27°C.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,7,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTemperament\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,7,1,0\"\u003ePeaceful.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,8,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAquarium Size\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,8,1,0\"\u003e115 – 150 Litres (Mature reef).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,9,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"33,9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eReef Safe?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"33,9,1,0\"\u003eYes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Williamstown Aquarium","offers":[{"title":"small","offer_id":53343736824113,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"medium","offer_id":53343736856881,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"large","offer_id":53343736889649,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/6066\/3601\/files\/no_image_product_fd6cb635-5063-4de8-b563-11081386bee4.png?v=1789996368","url":"https:\/\/www.williamstownaquarium.com.au\/products\/spotted-mandarin","provider":"Williamstown Aquarium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
