JManrow Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 One of our PNWMAS sponsors, Albany's Amazing Aquarium, occasionally has them in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Angel Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Seahorses I was at the Petco on Tualatin/Sherwood Hwy, and they had seahorses that they said were tank raised and eating frozen brine shrimp. Dont know if they were dwarfs or not, dont know alot about seahorses. Tammy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JManrow Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 If they were eating frozen brine, it's doubtful they were dwarf horses. If you intend to keep dwarves(Hippocampus zosterae), be prepared to be hatching a continuous supply of live brine! You can find lots of info here. http://seahorse.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanoreefer Posted September 30, 2008 Author Share Posted September 30, 2008 Thanks Jmanrow! I've been reading a lot on them and I am prepared to hatch brine shrimp I used to do that when i raised bettas so it shouldn't be a big deal.

TankIt Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I was at the Petco on Tualatin/Sherwood Hwy, and they had seahorses that they said were tank raised and eating frozen brine shrimp. Dont know if they were dwarfs or not, dont know alot about seahorses. Tammy DO NOT BUY THESE SEAHORSES!!!! I went in there a few weeks ago they had some in then too. They were breathing heavily and were curled up in the corner. The manager told me they were eating frozen mysis and brine. When I asked him to feed them a little so I could see them eat he informed me NO they had already been fed that morning!!! (flame)I got enraged and tried to explain to him seahorses needed to be fed at leased 2-3 times per day due to their digestive system and he informed me I did not know what I was talking about and that seahorses do just fine being fed 1 time per day(flame)(flame)(flame) After arguing with him for several minutes I just finally told him he was a dumb as* and stormed out!!!! Good Luck in your search for the dwarfs though...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
