your gonna need a good way for your pods to be removed from the fuge and put into the main tank, just switching some peices of live rock every couple days usually works.
a 55 is kinda small for a mandarin, even though its loaded with pods now, a mandarin will eat through those in a months time.
to find a healthy one, look for a fat happy looking one, colorful and alert, see if you can get the lfs to drop some prepared food in there. if it will eat frozen brine or mysis, thats a good start to keeping one in a smaller tank.
