Well, my Kuda had a fire goby for a buddy, did the LFS have an other seahorse with him? If there are more I'd definitely get him a buddy. From what I've seen horses do tons better with friends.

Id vote kuda, because of the bifurcated raised coronet. If it has two bumps on the coronet, then its kuda. cant tell in the picture

IDK...going on the picture posted, my vote is kuda. Really kinda hard to tell though. Gotta another picture?? I'm also going to go out on a limb stating that you've got a male, again, based on a very blurry picture...gotta another picture???

Picture of my male kuda, Apache, posted below.

Brine shrimp have NO nutrition at all. Feed enriched frozen Mysis shrimp!!!!!! Only dwarf seahorses eat live brine shrimp.

Agreed...frozen mysis soaked in garlic is just super yummy to these little guys/gals.

If they won't eat mysis, you can gut load the live brine by soaking it in Selcon for 24 hours. However, if they will eat mysis it would be much better for them.
