for the dwarfs ?
We prefer to be called 'little people'!
No unfortunately I lost the dwarfs a while back and I ended up taking down my mini tank, and now I just got 2 hippocampus kuda from will from will's water world yesterday

Nice, those were the reason we started a tank but decided against it when we couldn't get the temps low enough for them at my place. What else do you have with them?

My reidis love the frozen PE, have you tried that type of mysis? Mine also take to arctipods, but prefer the PE.

mine eat frozen mysis and spirula brine
Ok well I'm going to try the frozen then, I ordered a bunch of plankton and mysis from jehmco.com so we'll see what happens. And I don't really keep them with anything big, I have them with a baby ocellaris, 4 gobies that i caught at the beach, a few grass shrimp and different types of gorgonians with 3 pieces of live rock and I also have some mangroves floating over head with some caulerpa wrapped around their base/roots

They do like grass shrimp too...
they may or may not hunt them down, eventually.
but the frozen should work fine.
PE mysis is good.
also i make a brine/mysis mix, and enrich it for a while with Selco.
I have an erectus pair.

When i find live mysis, i use it as a treat.
same with live brine (larger), hatching my own became too annoying (smaller).
reading up on seahorse.org, ive seen some that get used to live and start to refuse frozen...
on that note, Dom from diamonds of the reef, sells them by the 1000 lot.
lil too much for me.
but i wanted to split a 100.
any 9 people wanna split a 100 each?

they are saltwater.
If you just put them in the tank, and refugium, they should reproduce.
I saw them once in a while in the sump.
Its just how fast the reproduce, i dont know. they become canniablistic and eat each other. Also the seahorses and other fish kinda pick them off, one by one. so it all depends.
Whenever I do see them, i pick up a few and throw them in the sump and like 10 in the main tank hoping they hide fast enough.
