Thank you, Kate this is the best place to get them they also sent me a pregnant horse and got 10 babys www.seahorseworld.com/articles.asp?id=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electrokate Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 How long ago did you get them? Any problems? I was hoping to avoid wild caught as I read about them being likely parasitized, but then the last time I got local dwarf seahorses they were not in good health anyways.

Electrokate Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 Thanks I will check Fish first, prefer local stock if I can get it. I already hatch brine shrimp so that's no problem, but man don't let cyano get in their tank. It loves the brine shrimp's waste and grows right on the seahorses.
