    Lawnmower blenny's do pretty good, but the best thing i have found is waterchanges with RO water, and a toothbrush to scrape it off the rocks.

    Hey- where did you order your seahorses? I have kept a few in our reef tank, but have since then setup a 65 gallon hhex for seahorses only.

    Sea Horse Not Eating

    What size tank are you using? Seahorses do need at LEAST 20-22 inches of water depth to thrive well. As for food, the seahorses that I have kept have eaten live brine, and frozen mysis, but their favorite food was blue leg hermits. They will hunt them down and rip them right out of the shell.
