Hippocuampus Reidi
Description: The Red/Orange Seahorse,
Hippocampus reidi., is a large colorful fish that many hobbyists
consider the most attractive of all the seahorses. They inhabit
the waters in the Eastern Pacific Ocean on the West coast of
the United States. The coloration of these seahorses is a brightRed/Orange.
Their coloration may change in the aquarium, and is highly dependent
on the colors of its environment. Recommend to keep the tank
well lit with red gorgonians and red algae plants to keep the
coloration at its brightest. Seahorses spend most of their time
clinging to seagrass with their prehensile tail rather than swimming.
Its many unusual features and habits make it perhaps the most
spectacular fish that may be kept in the home aquarium.
Minimum Tank
Size: It does best when kept
as either a mated pair, or with a small group of its own kind
in a species-only aquarium. The taller the aquarium, the better,
at least 16 inches high is best, as good circulation is most
important. It will get along well with small, shy fish such as
gobies, ocellaris and percula clowns, and firefish. But aggressive,
territorial fish, or fast-moving fish do not make good companions.
Diet: Do Not house with fast, aggressive fish,
as they will out-compete the Seahorse for food. These Seahorses
do well on vitamin enriched brine shrimp and frozen mysis shrimp.
They will also feed upon amphipods, and copepods, and other small
crustaceans found in live rock. They are slow, deliberate feeders
and prefer two or more small feedings per day.
Level of
Care: Expert Care Required
due to the special diet and tank requirements. We guarantee live
arrival in excellent condition, but there is no further guarantee
due to their special needs.

Description: The Yellow Seahorse,
Hippocampus reidi., is a large colorful fish that many hobbyists
consider the most attractive of all the seahorses. They inhabit
a wide range of habitats in the Eastern Pacific Ocean on the
West coast of the United States. The coloration of these Tank-Bred
seahorses are bright Yellow. Their coloration may change in the
aquarium, and is highly dependent on the colors of its environment.
Seahorses spend most of their time clinging to seagrass with
their prehensile tail rather than swimming. Its many unusual
features and habits make it perhaps the most spectacular fish
that may be kept in the home aquarium. Tank-bred they are fed
live copepods from birth, and then slowly converted to newly
hatched brine shrimp and frozen CYCLOP-EEZE®. By the time
they are large enough to ship out, they are eating frozen Mysis
shrimp. An excellent diet to keep them on.
Minimum Tank

territorial fish, or fast-moving fish do not make good companions.
Diet: Do Not house with fast, aggressive fish,
as they will out-compete the Seahorse for food. These Tank-Bred
Seahorses are accustomed to frozen mysis shrimp, making them
a smart alternative to their wild-caught counterparts. They will
also feed upon amphipods, and other small crustaceans found in
live rock. They will also accept vitamin-enriched adult brine
shrimp, but should not make up a majority of their diet. They
are slow, deliberate feeders and prefer two or more small feedings
per day.
Level of
Care: All seahorses are high
high maintenance and delicate.

New Release by ORA
ORA Shark Nose
Gold Lined Cleaner Goby
Gobiosoma
evelynae
Info on ORA: Aquacultured marine life is the
only alternative to wild caught fish and invertebrates for aquariums.
ORA™ tank-raised fish help you avoid the uncertainty of
capture, handling, transport, and disease associated with wild
caught fish. ORA fish are raised in an aquarium environment from
the time they are born and therefore are exceedingly hardy as
aquarium inhabitants. Through the use of a special nutritionally
balanced diet the color and vitality of ORA™ fish is unsurpassed
in the field of aquaculture.
Description:The Sharknose Goby is a cleaner goby
similar to Neon Cleaner Goby . The bright stripes on the backs
of the Sharknose Neon Goby is an advertisement to other fish,
attracting fish to swim up and be cleaned. Then the Sharknose
Neon Goby will swim all over the big fish, eating away dead skin
and dead scales while removing dirt and cleaning up infected
cuts. In the wild, the Sharknose Neon goby will congregate in
reef areas and wait for fish to enter thier vicinity in order
to be picked clean of parasites. They are small, reaching about
2 inches in length. They will eat small bits of frozen and dry
aquarium foods although in nature they are almost exclusively
parasite pickers. Normally, they are not bothered by larger fish
because they are recognized as cleaners.
Recommended
Tank size: 1 gallon
Feeding and
Diet: Neon Gobies get some
of their nutritional requirements from cleaning other fish, but
it is hard to make a living in a normal reef tank. They will
readily accept small meaty foods that are offered. Their mouths
are fairly small, so only small foods are given any attention.
Reef Compatibility: Neon Gobies are very
good reef tank inhabitants.
