I recently saw a post on here that was linked to another forum about a guy that was able to breed mandarins. It was a really cool read. I can't seem to find it now, but I'll keep looking and post the link if I can find it.

Although it's not the healthiest of foods, a few people, myself included, have had luck with frozen bloodworms. Cheap and easy.
