I keep telling you they are H. comes as they are the only species that have the yellow on the inside of the tail and the bands around their tails hence the common name of tiger tail seahorse. They also have the tell tale star pattern around the eyes. Look here and compare the different species you were given with the pics of your horses:
Seahorses
I'm not even gonna comment on saltwaterfish.com having good seahorses.
I am not trying to argue with you about this but you just seem to blow off everything I tell you and it is irritating. I have been keeping seahorses for about 6 years now and have had just about every species available in the hobby so I am not just somebody throwing a species name at you at will.
It doesn't matter to me how large scale of a breeder he is, if he is a source for true CB seahorses then I would like to be able to share his info with others in this hobby. I help run a website dedicated to seahorses and their relatives and our members are always looking for sources of CB horses and it would be great to be able to share another one with them. We have members from all over the country so I am sure a few of them would benefit from your guy.
