Aqua Equus!

olivert00 · 10-23-2008, 02:49 PM

Wanted to a start new thread for Blake and I, His male seahorse moved into my seahorse tank about a month or so ago, Blake had lost his female and the male wasn't eating or moving around the tank for a week, so we decided to put him in my tank with a young female and another male... so this is Blakes male and my young female.
I am not sure any of the eggs made it into his pouch by the look of the egg string at the bottom who knows.
I will keep a close eye on him and see.

Blake might get to use that nice tank that he set up for fry.

Sorry bad pics, taken with my iPhone I had to hurry.

Here is a video:

SeahorseBT · 11-03-2008, 11:33 PM

I don't know Deb. It's hard to say...Maybe. We will find out Wednesday.

SeahorseBT · 11-04-2008, 12:34 AM

I think I see the eggs you are talking about Deb, I am not sure though:

olivert00 · 11-04-2008, 02:47 PM

He has never had a swollen pouch like this, maybe he has a big gas bubble in there...LOL

Could she have transferred a few eggs or do they usually fill the pouch? I am not prepared for babies, maybe it is a false pregnancy.

If he is, Blake is prepared, I on the other hand...
