The Babies Are Early

Terri · 03-07-2008, 12:21 PM

I Was Starting To Think He Was Not Pregnant , He Wasn't Fat But Today! Today 10 Days After He Had Them . I Was Doing A Wc Before I Leave And There They Were. I Don't Know How Many I Sucked Up. Poor Things. So I Have Them In A Bucket With Air . When Matt Gets Off Work Maybe He Will Take Them. They Are Early, And My Water Temp Is 72 So I Thought They Would Be Late. I Also Thought They Would Hitch But Their Not. Boy I Need A Drink. Matt Can Take Picks, Yes I Had Bbs And Put Some In With Them.

Congrats on the babies !! Seahorses got it right they let the man carry the babies and give birth.

Thanks everyone Well their not doing well. most of them act like something stinging them , flicking around. I put 2 drops of formalin per gal in with them and air stone, i just did it i hope it helps. they won't hitch to anything so it's hard to keep them off the top. I am still waiting for Matt to call back. I think he's at work, or hiding . ha ha

Scratching and twitching are signs of ammonia with baby seahorses... Just something to check..

Not always. It could also be a sign of cilliates or any number of other things.

I picked up the babies yesterday and will try to get pics up of them.

panmanmatt · 03-09-2008, 12:02 PM

Ok, here's a few pics of the little guys.

kathywithbirds · 03-09-2008, 12:50 PM

Oh they're SO CUTE!!!

lcstorc · 03-11-2008, 12:14 PM

They are adorable. If anybody can raise them successfully then you can.
