Baby seahorses

Where are you located?

 

Hey, I have a RR 20gal nano setup for sale. I wish i saw this thread earlier cuz i just dumped about 10 gal's of my water out when i broke down the tank... I have about 15 gallons of cycled water left. my 10gal sump is almost full of water and the DSB in there is still live... About 5-6 gal's of water left in the DT... that amount of cycled water and a DSB, you'll get a very very small cycle. I wouldn't be surprised if your tank is cycled overnight.
If you're interested and can come grab it tomorrow, i'd make you a deal on everything including the Mag9.5 return pump that is installed... I was asking 85 for the tank/sump/stand and 80 for the mag9.5... if you can come grab it tomorrow, you can have the water and all the live sand in the DSB for 140 dollars.
I'd need to make sure you can come grab it tomorrow tho, the stagnat water is already making my room smell like well... stagnat sea water, lol.
I'm in ames BTW, a 25 min drive...

 

I'm in cr I have 20 gallon nano that has been setup an running for over two years. Just macro algae and coral frags left in it now. I moved everything else over to my 60 cube. Let me know if you would be interested. It has two inches of sand two job filters 1power head and a double bulb t5ho light so its full of life. Thanks

 

Let me know when they are ready!

 

I would also take some as well let us know thanks

 

As would I.

 

You can probably just use a 5g bucket or something similar with an airstone, heater, some macro algae/something for them to grasp etc and do careful water changes. I would just read up on it and see, they sound like they are doing fine where they are now. We need some pictures of these little guys!

 

Good luck, i tried twice and couldn't get any of them to make it. I did a lot of reading on the internet and it's very hard to get them eating. Most of mine would be gone in 3-4 days.

 

They prob won't eat anything but live food. And they have to eat multiple times a day. But you also need to keep from fouling the water. It is very tough to get the fry past these next few days. Good luck I hope a a bunch make it! What kind of seahorses are they?

 

Baby Brine shrimp are good for them to eat. If you can see there bellies turn orange then they are eating and they should be fine. I would buy some big goldfish bowls and put air stone in them. They only need to keep moving slowly and keeping them in something round would help this. They don't really need to hang on to anything. They can just be suspended and floating around and around slowly in the tank. This is how they do it over seas. You have to change water several times daily and feed them live BB as far as I remember reading. If you leave them in your nano the brine will fowl your water over time and you don't want to do that.

I would love to have some as well, but have no tank set up for them.

Good luck and pictures would be cool to see.

 

Ill take a couple as well. Goodluck.

 

Tagging along this one is interesting...

 

Best of luck to you! Wish you well....

 

Best of luck to you! Wish you well....

 

I'd also like to grab 2 if any are left once everyone else gets there's. Wish ya luck. I almost bought a set but wasn't ready for them like I am now.

 

Surprise! CONGRATS!! Good Luck! I know a lady in Florida that has a nice horsey tank. If you want, I could hook you two up. PM me if interested :=)
