The seahorse babies in their fry tank

[Reptileman111]

Is this tank similar to a kreisel system? where to water flows around in a circular motion so that the fry dont stay at the top and have fatal buoyancy issues? How long do they need to be in this tank for? When you switch them from live fry food to frozen food how do you do it?

Regards

What are you feeding the fry and how often

also can you share any helpful hints?

I have a mating pair too and cant make it past day 16 they drop like flies every time...

hi rsatov! they are so cool! in your main display tank do you have gorgonians? if so, how hard are they to maintain?

thanks!!

[rsatov]

I've had several different species of gorgonians. Some really just need good lighting and good water quality while others need a mature tank that can feed them. Both did very well in my 150gal reef.

do you have a select pair you breed from or do you just put any odd two seahorses together?

[rsatov]

[rsatov]

I would have to write a book to effectively answer your questions :-) They are only difficult if you do not have the knowledge, equipment and time to care for them. I knew almost nothing, used google to learn what I needed and succeeded. If I can, anyone can.

You definitly should write a guide! Or hook it up with some links in your more info, thanks!
