Dwarf Seahorses

[kamasi83]

I'm starting a saltwater pico tank and am considering making it a seahorse tank. Does anyone know a LFS that carries them or anyone on here that breeds them?

They are very hard to keep.

I don't know an LFS that has dwarfs, but seahorsesource.com is fantastic. Keep in mind how difficult they are though. They REQUIRE freshly hatched brine, daily. Not just live brine and they won't accept frozen.

Aquatica in Tinley usually has a couple.

Talk to ADOGG; he had/has seahorses. They are difficult to keep though. Good luck.

Good to know. I'll probably stop by there and check them out while my tank is still cycling.

Yeah, I was reading about how much attention they require.

the food isn't the issue imo im thinking of doing one my self te temp is issue from what ive read they like cooler water

 

[kamasi83]

I'm reading they like temps between 68 and 75 which should be pretty easy to maintain.
