Hello everyone.
If you are following me you know I have been building a reef safe seahorse tank out of a 32 gallon biocube. Yesterday I finally was able to add a male to my tank of two other female erectus ponies. He is a bit bigger than them but that shouldn't be a problem as they are still growing. However I have noticed that he isn't eating as much nor does he actively follow his prey until the others stop moving. Is this just a part of being new and shy? How long does it normally take for ponies to get used to their tank mates? So far both girls are curious about him, but keeping their distance.
