Re: My 34 Gallon Seahorse and Macro Tank!

I got some from a pet store. I still have about 25 ish left and about 150 day old fry! The older ones are starting to eat frozen (frozen bbs/ cyclopeeze) so that is a good sign. Here are some pics:

Papa before he popped in a separate tank.



Note the size of the new guys in comparison to the air line tubing

Re: My 34 Gallon Seahorse and Macro Tank!

Well, the 25 I have just dwindled down to 16. I don't know how but the divider on the older guys came up a little and 8 got sucked on to the filter intake. They are breathing heavy and I doubt they will make it. I don't know how the divider came up, I haven't touched it. Maybe someone in my family touched it. Oh well...

Re: My 34 Gallon Seahorse and Macro Tank!

I am going to raise them. The only way I can get better at raising them is through practice. Even the expert was once a beginner. I haven't lost any juvis since my last post but lost most of the newborns. They were a lot smaller than I remember and weren't eating the bbs like they should. I still have some though.

Re: My 34 Gallon Seahorse and Macro Tank!

What water flow do they have (l/hour)?

Also, what do you feed them during their 1st week, heard even rotipher are too big for the newborn...
