Seahorses

I didn't realize it till yesterday but I posted pictures on my seahorse tank before I had put the horses in
and never posted any pictures of the horses, so here goes, hope you enjoy!

My male


I had just cleaned the glass so I could take these pictures and that dam Kenya close up which is to bad
because it is huge and looks really cool with the horses hanging off of it.

My female


See the little yellow voyeur in the upper right corner!


it stayed still for a close up!






Picked up this little scooter a few weeks ago, there is also a Female Green Mandarin in there but she is
very camera shy so I couldn't get her.

 

awesome, what do you feed your horses?

 

The are beautiful! I would love to have a seahorse tank but I don't think I am experienced enough yet! ONE day I will have them! Thank you for sharing

 

also, will they breed in captivity?

 

Great pic!

 

They eat frozen mysis shrimp and allot of it.

 

Yes I hope to breed these some day, or one of the other 2 pairs I am getting next week.

These are some pictures of my Baby seahorses, they are about 4 months old and came from a wild caught pair a friend of mine has.



these pictures are pretty old, two of the 3 I have left are about 3" long now.



Day 3

 

Thank you reerun, gotta admit even I was surprised by that one. She is so pretty and she is the friendliest one.
When I feed they both come zipping up to the top of the tank but she is the only one that will stay and take the
shrimp out of my hand, he shy's away and hangs below just out of my reach.

 

very cool pictures..thanks for sharing. I am waiting for my seahorses to come in. I have ordered dwarf horses and 2 males are going to be pregnant (why cant it be like that in humans...) and am hoping some of the others will breed. Luckily I am currently working from home, so I will have the extra time to spend on the care.

Good luck with your horses! Please keep posting pics!

 

I would like to have some Dwarfs but they are just to labor intensive because of thier feeding requirements. It hard enough to feed baby seahorses during thier live food phase, I cant imagine having to continuisouly hatch brine shrimp every day or 2.

What are you planning on feeding the babies when they pop? have you got a good suply of rotifers? If I am not mistaken thats what they require. I know someone that cultures them and sells them for a really reasonable price if your interested.
