I was finally able to get a clear shot of the tiny seahorse babies. In the right side of the pic, I attached a penny to the background for size reference.
Last count was 24 from 2 papas.

Thanks everyone....they are now 3&1/2 weeks old and havent lost a single one. They eat like crazy and I can already see growth in them.
I have changed their water(1/2) often because of the shrimp molts, and I have them in a 1 gal tank sepperate from the parents till they get stronger.
Will keep ya updated.

Definately one of the coolest things I have seen so far!!!!
Are you keeping them all?
In what tank are you keeping them? Are they alone in there?
Do post some more pictures updates etc...
