Aside from temperature on of the main problems I thought about with the aquapod was that the overflow could suck in the little ponies and they'd get caught. I first made a sponge-type wall but didn't like that so I went with a tank divider. What I did was to warm up the top of the screen holder...

For the chiller pump and return: The back of the aquapod is divided up into 3 parts. In the first part I have some filter media and charcoal. In the middle one I have my chiller pump and another sponge below the pump. In the last chamber I have the intake to a filter and my heater. The return...

This photo is the back of the aquapod. I have a HOB little canister filter with purigen in it and a spray bar on the out flow. The intake to this filter is actually in the last cubicle of the back part of the aquapod. I didn't want to cover the intake with sponge and didn't want any dwarfs to...

As asked for (I started a different thread because I didn't want to hijack the other one) :) I've had dwarf seahorses for almost a year now and started them in a 10g. My husband saw an Aquapod while I was at a LFS and surprised me with it at Christmas. Knowing that I couldn't use the tank as...

I have 45 dwarfs in a 12g aquapod that I've done some modifications to. I started with 15 in a 10g. I know you are in the just thinking about it stage but you won't be able to keep them in there without making some modifications to the tank. You will also need to add a chiller because of the...

Personally, I think that if you are going to put any seahorses in that tank, you are going to need to run a chiller. I just think that they get too warm without one for seahorses.

Amanda, I read through this and hope that your horses are acclimating and start to eat soon. We're rooting for you!

Since when is 24 a teen? You've been in the saltwater hobby for 5 years? You may have made some mistakes and yes, I can tell you are young but we've been pretty patient with you. You may not think so but lets look at a few thing: - you bought some living animals without researching them (not...

I think that sounds like the best way to go, there is no wiggle room in a pico tank!

The reefer you got the panacur from, is that where you got your dwarfs? Do they raise them? If they have dwarf seahorses and know about your set up, it is probably better to talk to them about it since they are familiar with the horses and you. I don't know but those 3 little ponies might get...

A successful seahorse breeder (DanU) said that he wouldn't put his horses through repeated freshwater dips. Your LDS told you to. It's up to you on who you believe. I don't know how you are hatching the eggs or what you are feeding them so there's no way I could tell you if you are doing it...

Sexy shrimp aka Thor amboinensis are scavengers. Dwarf tanks don't have to be sterile, you just want to make sure that you don't have inhabitants that won't kill them. Panacur does limit what you'll be able to put in that tank. Dosing depends on the type of panacur that you have. Don't use the...

Why are you continuing to fw dips? Who told you to keep doing that? Again if it wasn't Dan or Ann (and I don't think that they did) STOP. What do you mean getting the QT ready? Cycling it or getting items for it together? It probably would have been much easier if you had purchased Adult...

I have never seen anyone be upset at questions. What I think the problem is and why you aren't getting the response that you once did is because you ask for advice and when excellent advice is given you fail to take it. You are under no obligation to take anyone's advice, but if you ask for it...

I know what you mean about the panacur, once you use it.... Do you might want to just use one of those little clip on fans to bring the temp down. I think that the size of your tank is probably okay for the 3 little ones. If you had more then you could probably put them in a larger tank. In my...

You know, I've got to wonder if you are trolling this forum? Where in Ann's post do you see the word "paste"? Have you noticed that less and less people are responding to your posts? I have come close to not responding as well because I don't really think you are serious. I don't want to...

They are so cute!!! I've had dwarf seahorses for about a year now. This is my recommendation but if Tom or Dan come in and post, they have a lot more experience. I normally keep my temps about 70-72F (I use an aquapod that I've converted and with the lights I need to run a chiller). Warmer...

Looks good! When does the cycling begin??

I am. I've seen them courting many times but they've never had a brood. I don't know if he's too young, one of them is infertile, or what the deal is. You can see she's ready to try for an egg transfer.
