U will need a good population of copepods. Sea Horses like cooler temperatures as well as low flow. U will need some flow so that there may not be any waste. U will need to feed them 2× time a day(depend on species) . Usually the salinity needs to be a touch lower than most reef tanks as well as the temperature (depends on species). Try to get captive bred seahorse as they r easy to feed frozen foods. U may also need chiller to give them the temp. They require. The temperature is the biggest indicator of a seahorses lifespan. They need a lot of filtration that what makes them hard to keep. Also u have to check nitrate,ammonia,etc. daily. Any wastes in any seahorse tank becomes a place where pathogenic bacteria can get fueled.
Tank is 13.5 gallon Fluval flex with tank temperature set at 75.1. Salinity is 1.022.Can you give us some details on the tank specs and equipment you plan on using?
Hello y’all how would you recommend I add copepod colony to this tank. It’s a Fluval flex can I just add it to the back filter areaU will need a good population of copepods.
