How pretty.  Isn't great when you can raise some one your own.  I'm so looking forward to doing it again

LOL...I thought it was a fake plant or some cool coral or macro. It did make the sea horse stand out in the picture...good job.

The girls are any where from 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches.  There are a few males that are 5 to 6 inches.

Definitely! 

 

 

....OK, I know that little girl number two is on the list.  Michelle loves that one already.  Now I just need to decide between number one, or number three.

 

 

If I could get four horses in that tank, I would in a heartbeat.  But I think three is the limit.

I had 4 erectus, 2 yellow clown gobies, 1 Hectors goby and 5 peppermint shrimp... in my 30g without a single problem...you have 37g...I would think you can do 4 SHs.

Possibly, but I'm going to keep it dialed back.  After all, there are two mandarins in here right now, and when the 110 is reinstalled the mandarins will be moved and replaced with a pair of purple firefish, an ORA spotted mandarin, and possibly a small sand goby. 

 

If I DO move up to four horses I'll probably want to wait a bit anyway for the biofilter to stabilize.  As it stands, I'm sure the addition of two new waste factories is going to put a small burden on the system for a little while.....
