New Seahorse Tank Questions

Recommended Posts

I'm just curious, when they are born, they are too big to be eaten by their parents right and no paternal care? What do the babies eat? I'm following this, it's so interesting and one day I'd like to have some seahorses too :-)

In the ocean they head for the light and end up in a layer of dense zooplankton that is at the surface of the water where many fry of different fishes feed until they are old enough to hunt or get food. In our tanks we don't have that so seahorse fry must be separated and meticulously fed and cleaned in a nursery tank.
