make sure your tank doesn't have any hydriods... and test water to have optimum water quality, as seahorses are very sensitive...

do lots of research on www.seahorse.org

www.seahorsesource.com is where I got mine. They come highly recommended by many.

Hydroids are of no concern to an adult seahorse. Fry and dwarfs are the only ones that can be harmed by them.

I wouldnt put seahorses in a new tank I would wait at least six months plus. Seahorses need a stable tank in my opinion to survive

Im not that stupid... i am just trying to find the best searhorse for my mother thats all...

In your first post you said you wanted to get your mother a seahorse tank for mother's day. So that implies that you dont have a tank up yet...I am just stating that Seahorses need a stable enviroment and that they need pristine water quality a new tank is putting the seahorses in jeopardy of not making it. I am just giving you advice...you can take or leave it that is your right to do so.

Sorry you were just liked the 80th person to tell me this with pm's and everytihng else...

I wanted to find a species that i can show her is worth her while to get... not to just throw into a uncycled tank. I live with her so i am going to help her take care of the tank... thus far my reef is fine....

The erectus seahorses seem to be a lot hardier than the kuda and the reidis. I have had all three and the erectus definitely seem the easiest and less prone to disease.
