animalmaster6 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Remember there's only seahorses, the cards, a mandarin, and a goby in there. Nothing else. I'm going to look around. i thought I saw someone doing this with the parents in the tank. Parents and other cards would eat them. Corals might as well. Link to comment
Bongo Shrimp Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Well, I might experiment with it but what's another 2g tank when you are raising seahorses. I'll already have good live foods and stuff. There are no corals in there and I would keep everyone well fed. Link to comment
