My 34 Gallon Seahorse and Macro Tank!

I just got these guys a few days ago and though they deserved a chronicle. I have another thread (My Newest Additions: Seahorses!) that has some details of their first few days. I have 2 girls 2 boys and 2 juvis who are too young to sex. The macro in there right now is red grape and I have a few more coming soon from Reefcleaners.com. Here are some pics:

The two Juvis:



Male 1

Loom closely, there are two seahorses in this pic

Why are your clownfish black and white? Were they cheaper because they're the wrong color?


sticking with the 29 gallon!

Re: My 34 Gallon Seahorse and Macro Tank!

Thanks Jeremy and Brad. You will be happy with them Brad. I have noticed they are more active with lots of swimming room and plenty of hitches so keep that in mind as you set up your tank.

Thanks Lynn. I was wondering when you would stop by. Are ponies still in your future?

Re: My 34 Gallon Seahorse and Macro Tank!

Thanks Jeremy and Scott! They are so funny, the pumps go off and the turkey baster hits the water and they come swimming. The old owner had them trained pretty well.
