seahorse

Hello. First post in the medical section so please let me know if I’m missing something/did something wrong. On Saturday, my banded pipefish had what I thought looks like a small abrasion behind its vent/dorsal fin. There was a small patch ever so slightly off color (more white/faded) with just...

Good morning reef2reef! Over the weekend my LFS helped me confirm that at least one of my male seahorses is pregnant! I've been trying to find a solid answer on how to successfully raise some seahorses online but haven't had any luck yet . If ANYONE has any experience with this can you please...

I have been wanting to build a seahorse tank since I setup my most recent 50 gallon column tank. In fact, that tank was originally supposed to be a seahorse DT but I ended up making it our main reef DT instead. I'm starting this thread in hopes it will motivate me to move forward with this...

Hello. I have 2 adult eructus seahorses. Captive bred in 32 gallon I am feeding frozen mysis shrimp which they have been raised on. They are eating but they are such slow eaters I don’t think they are getting nearly enough before food falls into sand. I have a few questions 1. Wondering if I...

Does my seahorse have gas bubble disease? I noticed he is having trouble hitching into things and he is struggling to stay submerged. What should I do?

I currently don’t have any seahorses, pipefish or clingfish but I find them absolutely beautiful so if you have some photos make sure to post them! Let’s see who keeps clingfish :)

Ive noticed my seahorses courting each other and was wondering if when I feed them, I'm disrupting something. Or if it helps or anything like that. I'm relatively new to seahorses so I'm still learning

The guy who helps maintain my tanks says he thinks one of my seahorses was impregnated. I haven't seen any mating occur though. The only mature female doesn't seem to want anything to do with the males. Any thoughts?

I have asterina starfish in my seahorse tank and they keep latching onto the seahorses and irritating them. Can I get a harlequin shrimp to help? Second question: will a harlequin shrimp eat tiny bristle stars i have in my sponges and sea fans?

My father bought a seahorse on his way home from South florida. And he, not knowing the difference, bought a wild caught seahorse. What should I do to prepare for it??

Hello everyone, male seahorse passed away today overnight, we thought he was pregnant as the pouch was enlarged but in the end we believe it had infected pouch. Our female seahorse has not been eating well, could the female have any infection/disease or anything? I have put it in a small side...

Have had a pair of seahorse now for about a month and half, both were doing well until recently the male started thrashing and scratching pretty bad, figured parasites so, did a freshwater dip with him for 8 mins about how long till he starts to bounce back if he will and when should I do a...

What’s wrong with my male lined seahorse? He already has pouch emphysema that I treat with pouch evacs a few times a week. I just came in today and noticed his eyes so swollen and his pouch looking weird. What should I do?

First post on the forum! Just about a month ago, I finally got dwarf seahorses again, setting up a slightly experimental tank for them in a 34g Solana cube AIO... So far so good, with 19 adults and several babies with more on the way! 4 days ago, one of my pregnant males gave birth to a handful...
