cellowithgills Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 This is so bizarre!!! First snails, then sexy shrimp, and now the sea hare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Yes we had that happen with the sea hares that we had. Of course we hoped that they would actually grow into little sea hares but I knew deep down they would end up as fish food. Looked just like that too! Very cool!

cellowithgills Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 All the stuff is breeding in my baffled tank. There's no fish with them, and there's not a whole lot of flow going through the tank. I won't get my hopes up too high, but but they're pretty much in a predator free area (with tons of hair algae(laugh)). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if sea hares could be bred in captivity. They are so awesome for hair algae but their life span seems to be so short and hazardous. I have lost several in my vortech sadly.

cellowithgills Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Well that's easy for me to avoid. I can't afford a vortech(laugh). There's a good and a bad about these baffled tanks. Bad being that the attracted hair algae like nobodies business. Good being that the Sea Hare can't eat it all at once, So I move him every couple of days, and the algae has a chance to grow back. If this keeps going I'll be able to feed him for much much longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpunk Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I've had a few lay eggs in my tank. Sadly they all seemed to keel over and die shortly after... That was with the black ones though. The brown seem to be much hardier and tend to live longer. Mine just survived the freshwater challenge...LMAO He's been around for over a year and going strong...
