Diamox is a human medication. Do you know a doctor that will call in just a couple of tabs for you? I'd lower it to at least 70F but that's just me. Do you have buffer to bring it up?

I think it's a symptom of something else going on. How's the water parameters (I'm sure they are ok, knowing you)? You might want to lower the temp for now too; at least it won't hurt. If it were me, I wouldn't stress the seahorse out by moving him until you get the medicine. I can make a run...

I love the toilet tank method! I'm going to do that; takes no thought at all just need to remember about it. I'm also going to use the light diffuser and rock rubble to make a verticle wall (in small sections) for the back of my tank wall. That wall will hopefully end up being my background...

My friend that has a predator tank took him. He is now living happily with others of his own kind.

Yep, acclimate. I've got a seahare that I move from tank to tank. He's never had it better than he has with me. I saw him out today and looked him over but forgot that I wanted to move him to one of my seahorse tanks.

My friend's youngest son just cleaned his new acrylic tank. He got the pad near the sand and got a grain inbetween the pad and the acrylic. He now has some terrible scratches in it.

I've read that some people use nylon hitches in their fry tanks, so it should be ok with DSH. I've found that my DSH love to hitch on either the stems of macroalgae or a dried seafan that I have in the tank. Sounds like you are getting there!! IIRC, it is advised not to use anything with...

If you don't already have a love for seahorses, it's not worth it. The costs associated with breeding them as well as the huge investment in time isn't worth what you'll be able to sell them for. Want to make extra money? You'd do better at having a second job. You'd put in the same amount of...

+1 on not mixing species even if from the same breeder. You know you're most likely going to have to get a chiller for your tank. I'm sure that during the summer in AZ you run your air conditioning, but if your tank is running 72-74 now come July it's going to be too warm for your horse. She...

I'm in Mission Viejo.

I've attached them in this post as well.

Hmmmm, I've got 3 photos posted. You can't see them?

Okay, what is he and what should I do with him? Here are my options: 1. put him in a tank with my wartskin anglerfish (A. maculatus) 2. put him in one of my sump/refugiums 3. give him to a friend that has a predator tank 4. put him in my reef tank Thanks!

In my tank I have areas of both high and low flow. I have some ponies that seem to love the high flow areas. It is rather startling at first to see the little guys thrown across the tank because of the flow but then funny to see them go back again and again. It's almost like they are getting...

Very nice!!! The dwarfs are really going to love it! I don't see where you have mentioned how you are cycling it? Are you adding a bit of ammonia to the water? I really like the plant in there, your dwarfs will love it. If you look around you might be able to find a black sponge which will...

Oh no, I am soooooooo sorry. What a terrible accident!

Thanks Greg! I appreciate the answers, just hated to bug you yet again! That IS a beautiful angler!! I've also read that krill is a huge no-no!!! I make my own fish food so I'll be set in trying to wean it over.

I'm hoping to add a frogfish tank to my collection. It's a 26g that will be a species only. I'm looking at a wartskin (A. maculatus) angler that about 2 inches in length. I've bugged saxman with tons of questions and now I'm here to bug you all (I feel like a big pest...poor saxman! He's been...

They are beautiful! They look like bronze seahorse statues. My male erectus allows the cleaner shrimp to come along and take the algae off but the female must not like it because she shake him off. Every so often I use one of my trusty turkey basters to blow it off her.
