I have been keeping dwarfs for about 4 years now. At one time I had 5 generations in the tank. They are actually my girlfriends favorite species of seahorse so she deals more with them than I do. Currently we have 8 adults and are hoping for some babies soon.
I have another batch of dwarfs coming in next week as a matter of fact.
They are very time consuming and require a constant supply of live foods such as baby brine shrimp and copepods. If you are really serious about trying them I will be glad to hep you out. Just be aware that they have very specialized care requirements, more so than the larger species.
