dwarf seahorse

[barryi]

i have a 10 gallon not in use. I was wondering how hardy these guys are if you can hatch and grow brine shrimp? does anyone know any good sea horse breeders either? Thanks

Barryi,
I just got 2 mustange seahorses from OceanRider.com.. can I say that? They are farm raised and AWESOME... Just make sure your tank is cycled COMPLETELY... My tank had a mini cycle and I thought it was DONE.. BIG MISTAKE, I had an amm spike and I am having a hard time controlling it (water changes, etc) so they done DIE..
Oh, I have them in a 15H..... If you have the stand for the 10 gallon, i would say get a 20H, it will fit on the same stand and will give them more room and wont cost you a fortune....
Good luck, Kim

i thought that dwarf sea horses were actually supposed to be kept in nano tanks. does oceanriders sell dwarf sea horses? is there a place that sells brine shrimp hatcheries also?

Oceanrider has pixie seahorses that are only about 1 inch. If you want pixies then a smaller tank would be better so you don't loose them in the tank.
Good luck, I will be getting my OR seahorses in a few weeks, can't wait!
