Emerald525 13,867 Posted March 18, 2017 Picked this little guy at Cuttlefish today! This has always been on my want to have fish and I thought I would surprise Sirena! These are just the cutest little fish! They are shy and he's hiding in the corner right now but think he will do well in this tank with mild mannered seahorses! Thanks Jeff you really made my day and Sirena's. She calls him Ned because that's the name of one of the Dr. Seuss fish in One Fish Two FIsh! 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know you don't have a tank up right now but if you want to check one out in person, Cuttlefish and Coral had another in one of their tanks - at least they did as of a couple weeks ago. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Emerald525 13,867 Posted April 5, 2017 Yeah I believe they only collect them one or 2 times a year according to Jeff so they don't come around very often! He was a little spendy but he's the only fish going in the seahorse tank so I wanted to get something special. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ned is doing well. I love him! And the seahorse tank is perfect because he is well fed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lexinverts 1,016 Posted April 6, 2017 Aren't they jumpers? Do you have a screen on the top of that tank? Very cool fish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I told Sirena there is always a chance but she would rather not have a cover. In my experience jumping often happens when a fish is freaked out and running from another fish so Ned being the only inhabitant with 2 docile and slow Seahorses makes it less risky but always a chance. Even with a cover cover I have had firefish jump. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
