Seahorse pair!

;D lol, I thought you meant plain Jane (as in common). They do have markings, but are not noticeable because they are a little dirty.

Tomorrow I will buy some live food for them. I read I had about 5 days before there digestive system shut down.

 

Alright a little update. I tried feeding them mysis, but they would not even touch it. So I bought them ghost shrimp, and they eat they eat them like crazy. Ill see if I can get them to transition to frozen (Ive read a few methods)

 

Luckily, H. erectus are probably the easiest species to transition to live food. However, the thing with WC 'horses is that they may eat frozen for a while, but sometimes they will refuse it out of the blue. You always have to be ready to go back to live food.

 

It looks like 2 males to me as well. The smaller looks like a juvenile male. Females have a very hard cut into the abdomen, as gazog's pic shows. I had a breeding pair of horses that died after the fry spoiled the water and caused an NH3 spike in my nanocube.

 

Im pretty sure one is a female from the lack of a pouch (very sharp line in abdomen). I fed them today and they ate like pigs . Ill try to get them on frozen, if not Ill feed start cultivating live food. Ghost shrimp here are 7 for $1.
