Banded Pipefish

locojazz74 · 08-15-2008, 12:12 PM

He's about 6 inches and very healthy. Like all the pipefish and sea horses, requires a very well established tank for it's impossible to feed. I had him for almost a year and he was feeding on my live rocks (amphipods, copepods,,). I want him to go to a good home...
$20, pick up in Brooklyn 11218

Thanx

PS: sorry, pix r terrible...

is he eating anything frozen?
I've had a pair of Dunckerocampus/Doryrhamphus pessuliferus for over a year and they
ate mysis right away. If you can't find him a home soon I'll take him, he can live in my tank, I've set it up to be pipefish friendly.
