I have 8 Captive Bred Hippocampus Erectus Seahorses about 3-4 inches. These are local raised seahorses. They have been eating frozen mysid since 1 month old. they are now 5 months old and eat full size frozen mysid shrimp. They look wonderful. Please let me know if you are interested. They are 65 per Horse.
LOCAL PICK UP IN VA/DC/MD only

I can do a pair for 120.
Yes i put them on CL as well, if you noticed on CL they were 75 per horse. I try to give discount to people who use these sites like swf.

They are not hard anymore. They do need their tank with out alot of fish. I have a clown gobie and blenny with them. They eat frozen mysid, you can just drop a cube in or melt it and feed them in a dish. they like to hunt but also know how to eat from dish. You will need at lest a 20 gallon tank, the higher the better. You don't need a sump, i have a hob filter. the temp should stay around 75 and you don't need high lights. i have a orbit light on the tank with some zoos, xenia, shrooms, and other corals.
I am selling them because i have 4 adults in one tank and all the 8 seahorse in another tank. it's just too much. I am not selling my adults just these that were born.
Shoot me an email for directions.

very interesting. i live close to the gulf coast and my brother works in the oil industry and has actually caught them in a net before, -he let them go. but i think they are facinating and have always wondered how hard they are to keep. water flow, light, etc. as you see i'm a newbie at any saltwater so i'm not going to get any seahorses yet. but i also was wondering if you can put them together with anything, blenny and clownfish, really? hmm, that's a nice mix of fish.
well i don't have a sump that's something i'd have to look into, (I don't know really anything about sumps). thanks for the advice. really cool
