| And yes, to respond to Pham's observation, proper nutrition is key to keeping the seahorses. I use Selcon and other products to enhance the value of the foods I use. This is a MUST when raising fry, but should also be practiced in feeding adults as well.
Tank raised seahorses will eat frozen foods and you should continue to give them this diet and refrain from using live foods if at all possible. Even those trained on frozen will turn up their snout at it if once again exposed to live foods. If you have wild caught fish, you may have no choice but to feed live foods while you attempt to switch them over to frozen. Otherwise, soaking frozen foods in any decent supplement contianing OMEGA 3 fatty acids, Marine Lipids and Vitamins is sufficient.
