Felicia's new seahorses from J&L (Boxing Day special - picked up yesterday after setting up her RSM).



Lousy pic but here's the Blue Flasher wrasse and Ornate Leopard Wrasse I picked up for the seahorse tank as a compatible tank-mate. All four tank mates are already eating mysis.

Wrasse's in with seahorse's? Never heard of that being good. Don't they eat the food before the seahorse's can get to it?

2 boxes of salt that was on sale at my LFS, 24GB of ram for my computer and some extra bits to help me get my tank running properly after my move.

The flasher wrasse is a delicate eater. The seahorses are actually very aggressive eaters, which is surprising but they chase down the mysis and not just hang out waiting for the food to drift over to them. I wouldn't put a fairy wrasse in there, though, because they are very aggressive eaters compared to leopards and flashers.

I've kept seahorses (almost all were wild caughts that I trained to eat mysis before the CITES ban) since 1984.

I also have 2 other sw tanks to put any fish that don't work out with the seahorse, but so far, the ponies are fattening up very nicely. Very impressed with their feeding response considering in the shop (J&L), they were less aggressive feeders.

Here's an article about what are good tankmates, can work, and shouldn't go into a seahorse tank. I've have Flashers and Leopard wrasses in my other tanks and they are very good citizens.

Hmmm... On Boxing Day I scored:

1.) a pound of great bacon and 6 or so churros
2.) too many alcholic drinks to even be able to count
3.) Sun Sun Sun

HEHE, I felt left out, as I was away on holidays, some great scores were found I see.
