    David You can do it! Although I have a bad update...somehow the female kuda is not eating. It just stares and stares at food. Even as she stares at the other ponies eating she just doesn't make the effort. Oh she will swim to it, she will stare at it. Stare at it more. Until a nassarius...

    I will only allow this to pass if you come back to the beach clean up with that excellent little helper of yours (LOL). Otherwise I'm moderating this thread and removing everything that says "selling/leaving". Can't have that. LOL. Seriously it is sad to see threads like these. I second...

    Stopped in today, unfortunately did not have my camera with me. Start with the nitpiks: Pet peeve of mine though is water on the floor - and there was a bit of that. Plus the guy filling the tank at the front of the store didn't tie down the hose properly and it fell on the floor dropping...

    A biG bIG BIG thank you to........

    I also want to give a shout out to john. First because he has a cool avatar (hahahahah) and second because after all this time he remembered that I was pretty much wiped out by sandy and kept a frag for me to help replenish. Big thanks and I would love to pay it forward once everything is back up.

    what are these???

    if that black object (what is it a tunze nano wave box?) is not tight to the glass - i would say maybe those are nerite snail eggs, but if it's tight to the box..no idea.

    Just a recap of my set up It is a biocube 29. Retrofitted without a hood. I have a regular ugly old fluorescent light on top (looking to replace) but I don't need anything other than to help SEE the horses. There is NOTHING alive in the tank that requires photosynthesis. This was a...

    Raising clownfish

    why don't you try mike? taking care of clownfish fry will make you more than prepared down the road for a seahorse set up. First get the rotifers....then use otohime and the set up is really easy. You just need to keep up with the water changes and some ammonia badges will help to make sure...

    Note that although this program /email and instructor are all part of ocean rider, it is not an obligation on yours to purchase your ponies from OR. That stated, if I had the cash I would have gone that route but went with a trusted LFS in NJ that I know of instead. Where you decide on getting...

    Hawkeye's Fused Jaw Tank

    Probably the biggest hurdle in my opinion is the sticker price on captive bred horses. I find that the right setup and husbandy make them relatively easy. The problem occurs when people try to cut corners (keep them in a reef display, or in the sump/refugium). Also people see sea horses being...

    The storm didn't bother the horses much because they prefer a lower temp. Higher temps are what cause the bacteria to breed quickly and overwhelm a normally healthy horse. haven't seen panmanmatt in a while but he was our resident expert. Now I guess seahorsekeeper might be our most...
