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 tank to feed it in there with more mysis shrimp but she doesn’t seem to eat. She also doesn’t have any positive or negative buoyancy problems that I can observe.

she has little white spots on her body, could this be a problem or is this normal colouration as she changes colours.
Ammonia is 0, Nitrite 0 and Nitrate 40/50
doing water change at this moment to reduce nitrates down.

Thank

What temp is the tank at? Didn't think you could keep horses and mandarin at the same Temps. (I might be clueless though)
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
