Thanks Ponie,

Thank you, they had very good, long lives!
I am not convinced, though, that they were kuda. The coronets are more pronounced and the coloring tended to be speckled with white (pixie dust) on the little one, and lined (occassionally) on the larger one.
I bought both at an LFS and both were adult when I got them. The LFS did not know. I suspect erectus.

LOL...I have a 10 gallon sitting on my desk. I haven't done much with it, I am planning to use it for fragging, and also to keep the horses in while I clean or rearrange their tank.
The 90 gallon is the tank the horses live in. I had to devide the tank to keep the perc clowns from stress the horses. It worked out for the best...after my huge scare the other day (when I found the new horse stuck to the intake :scared: ).....I just finished switching the intake and returns on the tank....no more intakes on the horses side. The boys are doing great. It very interesting to watch the two, they are so different~ Valiant's buddy is very shy....he prefers to hunt pods in the suclusion of the LR...while Valiant's prefered meal is mysis...and he likes to swim all over.
It's easy to forget that they are actually fish! Every thing about them is so unique.
I am also going to devide my daughter's 45 gallon tank into 2 sections.I have finished aclimating her mollies to salt, and as soon as I get my brine shrimp factory going I'm going to get dwarf sea horses!!!

Girl, you're kidding me!
I just left the other thread...perhaps the new horse is injured by intake?
It makes it difficult to help when things are so scattered.
IMHO, you might want to step back and get used to the armful of duties you have now.

Yes, and get your husband a chance to acclimate to all the new changes!

Can anyone tell me if you are able to have a sea horse if you have an underground filteration system? Are they easy to get to eat?

Undergravel filters are a thing of the past(IMHO) And seahorses are anything but easy. How lond have you kept salt water and how much research have you done regarding the care of seahorses.
