I had pipefish with my horses but IMHO they are harder and more sensitive and mine never did well, when I placed an order for my second ones thru my LFS, they never even made it thru shipping
HTH adn good luck!!

Hmmmm, this past weekend I came this close *holding forefinger and thumb together REALLY close** to getting a pair of multibar pipefish for my sh tank, they were just BEAUTIFUL...at this point I'm glad it didn't work out with the mini-crisis that I was having with Apache. The pipes I was considering were eating frozen mysis, no problem. When I inquired further though, they were wild caught...not a good thing in a sh tank...deciding factor (oh, and the fact that I spent WAY too much money shopping already...
)...but mostly the wild caught thing...I just don't want to expose my horses to something that they can't fight. I didn't realize that they're much more difficult to keep though...I'm really glad I didn't go for it!!
Always, ALWAYS know where your seahorses or pipes came from!!
