They are doing great. They all ate. The stressed out girl calmed down after an hr or so. It took longer for her to eat than the others, but I was trying not to hover, so she may have eaten more. The other 2 found the feeding dish straight away and totally pigged out. LOL. Now I'll be a nervous wreck all night until I get up and make sure they are ok I. The morning. They are so small. It's been so long since I've had babies. But you should see them wrestling PE Mysis. It's a good thing I have hikari too, but they like the PE

They are so funny at that age. did you add them to your display or are they in QT. When I first added a few of my babies they were so courious and would sit a look at zoos and snails. They had never seen anything like that. lol

I may regret it, but I added them to my DT. I was having some problems with my QT and I took it down to clean it and re-evaluate (I think I need a new filter) and I got an email from the breeder saying the babies where ready now and I said ship them. I wasn't supposed to get them until October. I have sponges over the strong PH intake and I unplugged the big korila. The only think I'm really worried about is a huge peppermint shrimp, but they are fed well and I've never seen it try anything. My big horse and them had a stare down, but they have all ignored each other and he sleeps by the filter intake, so I don't think they will be going to it. 2 are asleep in the gorgonian and one is in the macro. The tank is full of pods and amphipods, so there is a lot to hunt and see. I do work all day tomorrow which sucks, but then I'm off for 4 days to stare at and fuss over them.
One already looks like she may be turning colors. I can't wait to see what they look like in a few days

I took a couple of new pictures this morning. Once of the girls was hiding in the back and wouldn't pose, so she didn't get a picture today LOL

Just lovely...I could look at seahorses all day.
My big boy and little girl found the top rocks on the column shelf this morning...amphipod heaven has been invaded...LOL... I seeded the rocks a few weeks back, and I just seeded the refuguim.

I can't help but take pictures of these guys. I love them.
Since I have a hard time keeping macro alive, I decided to try a few softies until my macro either completely dies or replenishes.
Hiding in the tree

Catching a wave (don't worry, her tail is hitched to algae. I don't have any problem keeping hair algae alive LOL)

Getting a bubble massage (the white blur are bubbles from my airline)
