Glad to see this forum.
I hope this venue can continue without the issues that seem to plague the others.
I live in Windham and breed seahorses and keep a reef.
It would be great to find some folks to trade frags with.
I also raise Brine, pods and mysis, and can occasionally offer starter cultures a lot cheaper than Reed.
I will be getting isopod and amphipod cultures started soon.
Best,
Scott

Erectus also.
Are you breeding them?
It is a major time consumer.

Currently nine Juveniles and one adult H Comes.
I was unable to get my regular food for a while and woke up to a bunch of losses after feeding SFB mysis. Back to feeding live and Hikari and things are getting better.
I am going to be setting up a completely new facility outside the house over the next few weeks.
I have found that trying to raise horses in the hundreds hits a roadblock once they start eating frozen foods. The water volume I have can't handle the bio-load, even though my RO runs 24/7.
How old are your fry? Are they on frozen yet?
Are you enriching your feeds?
Best of luck,
Scott

Mother nature does have a way of weening the weak ones.
I find water quality very important and the right amount of current essential.
They can handle more current than you may expect, as long as there is nothing to get hung up on.
Flow is another thing. they can get exhausted very easily and that is usually fatal, so getting pinned against your outflow is deadly.
How are they holding up at this point?
