Hi all.
I’ve had my seahorse tank setup for about 6 months now with a pair of kuda seahorses. Male was a tan colour and always really has been and the female was very dark. Almost black. I’ve recently added another pair of kuda seahorses. When they arrived (from same supplier) the new male was a very dull yellow. Almost clear/white. And the femal was bright yellow.
I’ve had these for around 3 weeks now and since they have arrived all 4 of the seahorse have lost all colour and appear very pale.
They are all eating extremely well, I feed them on Betta Choice frozen Mysis and garlic artemia. They seem to love them both.
ive not got any corals in the tank. But I do have 4 feather duster worms of different colours, they like to hold on to these and a large artificial coral ornament in the centre where they also like to hang out.
I’ve also had a slight ammonia spike since adding the extra ponies but since that the tests now show zero. All other readings are correct but still no improvement in colouration since all turned pale.
The photos attached are of the 2nd female seahorse. 1 photo on arrival and other photo today.
could anyone advise me on what I can do to help their colours pop?
Thankyou for any advice on advanced
