Anyone out there with seahorses?

These are my piebalds. I have about 40 fry at 2 months or older.

I purchased all of these beauties from Dan Underwood at Seahorse Source.

These delicate animals are so cool to me . Just don't want all the responsibilities of caring for them.

Good for you! Keeping adult seahorses are not hard for me to keep when I am keeping up with husbandry and water changes. Now fry...that is another story for me. I raised 15 out of 22 my first and last try. It was so much work I never wanted to do it again.

Your ponies are gourgeous. 2 of my 3 are also from Dan Underwood. He is awesome.

Thank you for your reply. I think many people want seahorses but are unsure or misled about how to keep them. I find them easier to keep than many fish and corals. I think this needs to be taught and shared with many people, including local pet stores.

They are not too difficult to keep and take care of.

I thought one needs to raise daily baby brine , special filtration & tiptop water quality. Please tell us more .

My sentiments exactly. I'd love to have some.

I'd love to hear more. I've been too intimidated by the idea based on what I hear everywhere I go.
