第一批圈养育奥拉发现了普通话正在发布，应尽快从您喜欢的海洋，礁石和水族馆购买（ora）商人。Synchiropus picturatus是海洋水族馆贸易的珠宝之一，但这些令人惊叹的鱼被囚禁浪费了很多，许多业余爱好者发现了艰难的道路，而其他人则有理由避开了这个标本。通过Ora在过去的一年中饲养这些鱼的努力，他们不仅能够成功地繁殖这些美女，还可以在囚禁中养育这些美女，这使业余爱好者有机会在他们的系统中添加丰盛而美丽的鱼。这些奇妙的鱼具有五颜六色的口罩，其无绿色的身体具有绿松石，宝蓝色，橙色和黑色的精美圆形图案。
饮食需求和野生捕获的食欲是这些鱼类在圈养环境中如此糟糕的主要原因。ORA斑点的普通话接受培训，可以吃准备好的鱼类食品，使平均业余爱好者能够在自己的水族馆中满足这种鱼的饮食需求。尽管训练了鱼类食用准备的食物，但ORA发现的普通话仍在成熟 - 以1.25至1.5英寸的长度运输，并将有贪婪的食欲。该公司建议经常喂食 - 每天至少两次。他们很容易接受的一些冷冻食品包括：切碎的hikari血液蠕虫，Nutramar ova（虾鸡蛋），鱼玫瑰和婴儿盐水虾。他们还习惯于吃新的生命谱小鱼配方丸。
Although these fish have been raised in captivity, ORA cautions the hobbyist to take care when introducing these fish into their aquariums. “We admit, we’re also feeling a bit protective of them and we want every single one of them to be successful in their new homes,” said the company in their press release. “It is important for everyone to understand that ORA’s mandarins have led a sheltered existence in the hatchery and they are very naive. We wish to caution all hobbyists that these baby mandarins are not yet ‘reef-smart’ and should not be kept with fish large enough to eat them or show aggression to them.”
As for picking up two of these beauties and trying to get a mated pair, ORA notes the fish have been observed to reach sexual maturity but with their smaller size it becomes difficult to distinguish a female from a subordinate male with any confidence. The company plans on offering pairs in the future.
No word yet on the approximate price you’ll expect to pay at the checkout or just how many are going to be released with this batch but we can assume the pricing will be very fair for this exquisite fish. So go out and bug your favorite ORA dealer about getting one of these wonderful fish and be sure to come back and share your experiences with the rest of us.
Captive Bred Spotted Mandarins
ORA biologists have been hard at work developing the methods to breed and raise the Blue Mandarin, (Synchiropus splendidus) and the Spotted Mandarin, (Synchiropus picturatus.) The first wave of these captivating beauties is now ready to charm hobbyists all across the country. Even though they are some of the most attractive and popular aquarium fish in the industry, many wild-caught mandarins are difficult to feed and despite best efforts, most of them fail to thrive in aquariums. ORA has eliminated this heart-breaking problem by training our captive-bred mandarins to eat a variety of commercially available frozen foods and pellets. Now the average aquarist can enjoy the convenience of finding readily available (and affordable) food sources for their exquisite ORA dragonettes.
Caring for ORA Mandarins isn’t as simple as throwing a cube of frozen food and pinch of pellets in the aquarium a couple of times a week. At approximately 1.25”-1.5” in length, ORA’s Spotted Mandarins are still growing and have voracious appetites. We recommend frequent feedings – at least twice daily. Some of the frozen foods that they readily accept include: finely chopped Hikari Blood Worms, Nutramar Ova (prawn eggs), fish roe, and baby brine shrimp. They are also accustomed to eating New Life SPECTRUM Small Fish Formula pellets.
Our experience has shown that these young fish begin to grow rapidly when they are kept in a reef environment. We believe that while our mandarins can survive on 100% commercial diets, they will thrive in an environment that offers them a combination of frozen, pellet and live foods.
奥拉是我们的官员非常自豪been nurturing for almost one year. We admit, we’re also feeling a bit protective of them and we want every single one of them to be successful in their new homes. It is important for everyone to understand that ORA’s mandarins have led a sheltered existence in the hatchery and they are very naive. We wish to caution all store owners and hobbyists that these baby mandarins are not yet “reef-smart” and should not be kept with fish large enough to eat them or show aggression to them. We have been amazed to observe that even at this small size our mandarins are reaching sexual maturity. In the future we intend to offer pairs, but at approximately 1.5” it is difficult to distinguish a female from a subordinate male with any certainty. Despite their petite size, we’re sure you’ll agree that ORA’s Spotted Mandarins are some of the prettiest fish ever produced. They have colorful masks and their green scaleless bodies sport exquisite circular patterns of turquoise, royal blue, orange and black.
这些超凡魅力的鱼具有如此宁静的气质，即使是海马爱好者也可以考虑在坦克中添加Ora普通话（或两只）。
News of our dragonette success has been far-reaching and we thank everyone for their support and patience. Unfortunately we are only able to release limited numbers of the Spotted Mandarins this month with a strict limit of 2. If you miss the initial release, please don’t worry. We have many more staged up and it won’t be long before they are eating 100% commercial diets too.
随着我们继续发现更有效的提高婴儿普通话的方法，我们的成功率将提高，我们希望在几个月内将两种普通话始终在价格列表上提供。
