Default RARE dwarf seahorses - Mississauga/Toronto ON

Spring is in the air!

My dwarf seahorses have been busy doing the mating dance and are getting crowded in my tank. While keeping my babies for growing out, I'm offering some of my original wild caught adults for sale. These guys were imported with CITES documentation and have gone through the full quarantine and deworm process. Very healthy and lively. Full grown at 1.5", these guys are RARE little treasures...almost impossible to find in Canada!

Dwarf seahorses (Hippocampus Zosterae) do well in their own nano system of 5-12 gallons. 1 seahorse per gallon is a good rule of thumb. They do well in a small colony. They need daily feedings of live baby brine shrimp, either newly hatched or enriched. Very prolific and fry are benthic (hitches right from birth) and eats the same food as the adults. Relatively hardy and easy to keep once you have the basics right. They've even been compared to guppies by one breeder some years back...if it's not for the BBS requirement, they might well just be the best beginner seahorses to have.

If you want more info and/or tips on care, just email me.

Only the white ones are for sale. Price is $25 each. Will ship anywhere in Canada with an overnight Courier service at buyer's cost.

I will be bringing in a few for another customer of mine in Edmonton, anyone in the local area interested, please post here.

I will not increase the price, but just add a few dollars for shipping costs.

Thx Ken for the help. This will save each of you lucky Edmonton ppl quite a few bucks in shipping.

I have 16 left available, not yet confirmed (Ken, yours are confirmed). First ones PM/email me asking for my paypal address for payment hold their spot and number of horses.

For outside of Edmonton, I will ship door-to-door via FedEx Priority Courier. You can look up shipping cost using your postal code and mine L5J 4R3. For now use 15x13x12 box, 10 lb for estimate. If I find a smaller box you pay exact shipping cost.

We can also arrange cross shipping from my location in Edmonton. The couriors like to charge a bit more when they have to go across a few more provinces.

I know I sent purolator to Kelowna, and it cost only $40 next day before 10:30 am (cheapest, others wanted $70+), so if you are in the west we can save you a bit also.

We all hat shipping costs, that is why I'll help out any way I can.

Please note, I am helping in the shipping of these seahorses, in no way am I or BWA are connected in the sale of them.

Ken

Ken,

Could you calculate how much it would cost total to get say 6-8 shipped to me in Burnaby through you? Or would it be cheaper to send straight? FedEx site tells me its $75 for first Overnight from ON.

Thanks,

Anthony
