dwarf seahorse are very tiny even at full grown, i feed my seahorse a few times a day, starting at 5:30 when i get home, all doing fine, in a tank that size though i would do a few gobies and maybe a pistol shrimp, lighter sand seams to reflect light better making tank look brighter, wont take much rock to fill it, id buy some base rock and well system is cycling make your decision what direction you want to go with it

Thanks for the input!

I mean I could feed them once/twice a day but still not sure, you feed live only?

also, i gotta see what are some really neat little gobys. WWOF had that amazing little one but im sure gone!

Started

So i am a jackass, the thing i thought was the overflow was not it at all so i dremeled it for no reason
anyways, got some sand and filled it up with few pieces of cured rock. I am hoping to get my hands on some Tonga branch for the rest

 

[Reef Reaper]

I just got one too. I haven't filled it yet, but you can't beat the price. The tank will become my new frag tank!

 

[DrCooper]

Update

Well tank is doing great! Letting it go through a cycle even though rock is fully cured but with new sand incase anything rises!
Tank is great.

I shoot pics tomorrow when off work

On horrible note I am at work and can barely move, my back is having spasms. worst pain i have ever felt in my life!

Very happy

I am very happy this morning. Last night before I went to sleep I finally saw my candy cane pistol shrimp ALIVE in my 9 gallon.
This morning the pistol and Yasha Haze are paired up and best friends. The pistol is digging for the Goby. IT IS SO FREAKIN COOL TO SEE THIS

the symbiotic relationship really is amazing


I am studying all week and this brings me at least something good versus studying horses and cows hahah

pics to come hopefully today!:inlove::inlove:

 

[DrCooper]

Update

Well this tank is coming along well! Had a bad algae outbreak going on that some emerald crabs took care of.

I am trying to get this tank FULL of Xenia and shrooms.
3 sexy shrimp and a yasha haze goby paired up with a pistol shrimp and another pistol shrimp hanging alone.

The pistol shrimp is amazing to watch dig and carry out sand!


I would like to add a small fish but we see.

 

[DrCooper]

Solo pistol

here is the guy that lives alone in front of tank. Its great cause he lives in front so i can see him dig and do his thing.

 

[Awibrandy]

Awesome Doc!!
