Mine are twice a day. A mixture of Krill and Mysis typically. Occasionally I will feed live ghost shrimp or brine shrimp.

He is both. I occasionally (and I stress occasionally) feed him myself. Maybe once a months. He spends most of his time hidden in crevices that I can't get to. I can see him (my tank is clear on both sides now) But I can't get to him. He fends for himself pretty well. I have had him for three...

I agree with Promise. A few of us here have some extensive knowledge on seahorses (but general what we are keeping) Without his tail to use to hitch you are probably going to lose him. Without picture it is hard for myself to give you a "medical" diagnosis of what to do. To be honest, I would...

melafix won't help.

I would pick up some kanacyn. Maybe not give it to him, but just incase.

out of 1000 babies you can expect 3 to survive on average....

handicapped for life. Sorry. Are you giving him some meds at all to help fight this?

In case you need a laugh: Remember it takes a college degree to fly a plane but only a high school diploma to fix one. After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems, document...

I signed up for this...and at first I thought it was sort of lame...but now I am hooked. Just wish it would move a tad bit faster...lol

If a player wants to celebrate I say fine him. Atleast then it is his decision and only he pays the price. The celebration has no affect on a play or the game itself, unlike other penalties. To penalize the team because a guiy danced is ridiculous in my opinion. (part of me also hates this rule...

I agree for the most part. But a side of me says, I don't stand up and dance when I do my job at work and complete a task assigned to me..........

have the lfs feed the horse frozen food in front of your eyes. Just to confirm. Dwarf horses eating frozen is unheard of, mainly because the food is to big for their snouts. How big are these horses in inches? I would be amazed if they are eatig frozen.

I have 5 hermits in with my horses now. Never had a problem. I also a ton of Illnasarris snails. some eat algae, others eat the leftover shrimp. Then 3 peppermint shrimp and a purple lobster. Between all those guys, I have no leftovers in about 10 minutes.

I don't have a feeding station. chasing the frozen mysis in the water is more akin to their hunting of live food in the wild. Never had a problem.

how much mysis are you feeding at once? I put in two cubes each feeding and let it float around...the fish will get some, but the horses still get their fill this way. That is also why I have such a larg clean up crew. Something to consider.

What fish do you have with them? I used to have the same problem. I would feed the fish first and then while it was busy eating I would feed the horses. I don't use a feeding dish though. Never have. I believe this causes the horses to be "lazy" when it comes to food. I pour the mysis in and...

I wouldn't do it. I tried using kick ich once (in the beginning of my saltwater adventure) and had an entire tank wipe out....including snails. Personally I wouldn't use the stuff. Just wait till your done medicating and have filtered with carbon and poly, then get your coral.

why would you want to get rid of them?
