I believe my kudas and tiger tails are likely to have been wild caught. I bought them from the local aquatic shops, although to their credit, I do believe they are good people. These were my earliest taste of seahorses, and they only lasted a couple of months each time. Even my first reidi was...

So are you saying that they all had birth defect?

I am no expert, just been keeping seahorses in the last year after the first year of reef keeping. This is my third pair of seahorses, but is the first pair of H. Reidi. The previous ones were H. kuda, then tiger tails. I think the babies simply gulp air, being unable to control their own...

Hi D3monic, it is such a beautiful set up! I only have a 24 gallon nano tank, and have a pair of H. reidi, a pair of banded pipefish, a mandarin and snails... A small gorgonian and xenia. Lots of macros, although I accidentally trimmed too much last few days I have a wait a bit before it will...

I have just had the same experience. My male Reidi gave birth 4 days ago while we were out, so I only managed to catch what I saw after, which came to about 40 babies. I put them in a rearing tank which goes into the parents' tank, with slits to allow communication of the water. I think I saw...

My tank contains a pair of H. reidi, a pair of banded pipefish, a mandarin and snails. They love the macros which I keep trimming down every other week. I only have a small gorgonian and xenia as far as coral goes. This set up seems to work well, with the mandarin and snails picking up left overs.

Hi, you have a great pair of Reidi. The pictures and videos are very good. I wonder if you would give a summary on your experience in raising the Reidi fry. My pair of Reidi just had their first batch of babies a few days ago, but unfortunately as I find myself limited in space and time, I have...

I have uploaded a picture as attachment to my last reply, I don't know where it has gone.:banghead:

I bought a filefish, the one I have in this picture, as soon as I saw a little polyp of aptasia on a piece of my rock. These fish eats aptasia. I have had no problem ever since, and have also noticed it had eated up a few unknown white fluffy bits that used to grow on my rocks too. So it...

No I have 2 separate saltwater tanks. I have the D&D 24G tank as tropical freshwater before for a pair of green spotted puffer, and since I wanted to keep my friend's fish otherwise they were to go back to her local LFS, I moved the freshwater puffers to another tank and converted the D&D tank...

He is sweet. Thanks for sharing.

You are welcome. I think may be you'll have better chance with a smaller valentini. I have just looked at your seahorse. Would you say it is a deep blue colour? Is there just the single one? Wouldn't you find feeding a bit difficult with a mix of fast fish and the very slow feeding seahorse? The...

Hi! No he has never done any great harm to any clean up crew. The thing is, when I first had him, he was the size of 2cm from snout to tip of tail, so he was not big enough to attack my hermit crab or the cleaner shrimp at the time. The hermit crab did die after a year. While I am sure he would...
