Thanks everyone for the welcome. I have never used a forum before . I hope this is right. I don't mind the questions ,thats how i learn. I have had my two seahorses for a year, i got them from Dan (seahorse sourse) I like him and trust him. but he has none for sale . my poor horse got the tip of its tail stuck in the pump cover. no not in the pump i have a cover over it that has holes so small the food can't get thru ,but i think she was up there eating the food and got the tip in. I now have a foam over it i hope it won't interfere with the protein skimmer but i don't want another one to go through that. they are my babies. I only want captive bred seahorses . Dan helped on my tank setup.i have a fluval canister filter, and refugium with protein skimmer. temp is 75 I only seam to have a problem with nitrate (20) i test every week and do 20% water change every two weeks. Yes, i feed to much 3 times a day.I do have a sm hermit crab, and sm brittle star the star is the seahorse taxi cab . he wraps his tail around him and goes for a ride, I am going to take pictures . sorry so long. Thanks again
