Coral Bandeds are known for taking down fish now and then and I'd never keep one with any seahorses. Peppermint shrimp normally work out just fine,...
Connor, I wouldn't have any damsel in any of my tanks for any reason. However, there are people out there that love them. I would say they are best...
Connor, now you've hijacked your own thread. If you carry on this type of dialogue via PM's or e-mails, you leave the thread in better condition...
In a quarantine tank I personally don't use filters but all you have to do is turn the filter off while feeding, then remove the uneaten particles...
Count the number of mysis you put in the tank, go away for an hour, then count the pieces in the tank. If less, someone ate them. I suspect that...
Once you get the frozen Hikari then you should be OK.
Not all seahorses recognize brine shrimp as food as it is not found in their natural habitat. Also, mysis has more nutrition than brine unless you...
I'm partial to 40g tanks with 20g sumps for my seahorses. With proper husbandry I can keep six seahorses like erectus or reidi in this type of set...
First of all, some seahorses will eat pieces of mysis, but many won't. You could try it though. Hikari mysis are the most appropriate sized mysis...
Well, I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. I guess I'm too old for the new spellings and sentence structures. However, I'll give it a try as...
I'm sure if you ask Peka, she didn't feed just frozen brine. The recommended food for seahorses is frozen mysis shrimp, with Hikari mysis being the...
It would certainly be unusual for you to have calcium precipitating in this tank at this point, especially if you haven't added anything to cause the...
Hopefully you put the flake food in a blender with some water to micronize the particles first, as artemia can only ingest very small particles and...
How do you know it's calcium?
When are you adding the rock, and are you going to sterilize it first? Is it coming to you wet or dry? If you add the rock after the cycle,...
There IS life there, you just can't see it. However, that life you can't see is responsible for being able to keep the life you place in it after the...
I have to order whatever I use from there in the US because I have no source for what I want here in Canada. I use spirulina powder from BSD that I...
You can use it but it's an awful expensive way to feed brine shrimp, and they still need to be enriched afterwards for best results.
No one can tell you how long the tank will take to cycle, no matter what method you use. Every tank is different. That is why you have to test for...
First of all, you do not NEED any live rock or live sand to seed the new system, especially as it could possibly affect your success in keeping...
