First, how large is your tank? You'll need at least a 50 gal tank, and larger is better.
Second, do you have any other pod eating fish? Many wrasses eat a lot of pods and out compete mandarins for them.
Third, are there some pods in the tank, and has the tank been set up for 6 months or more? Your tank has, so you are OK here.
