Hi Ong,

All Yins and no Yang. Very neat setup. I will be on the look out for you. I got 2 couples but I can't exchange cause if male go away, darling may grief and die. What yours seahorses staple? Do you enrich it? What the deg C of water? Sorry for being so nosy. Like do know more about my frie's next home.

Hi Nickel,

Surely keep you posted. Provision must be made to prevent BBS being eaten by pumps...

Hi bro, that is not how the sentence meant. Read again :

"No pump in my SH tank. it is integrated into the main tank and supported by sumps through natural flow of water."

MY specimen tank is INTEGRATED into the main tank and SUPPORTED by the sump tank, ie., the specimen tank is standalone but connected to the sump tank via pipings for chiller and filtration purpose. Not inside the sump tank. ;)

All LS, especially SH is too precious to me and will occupy the 'prime' display tank in the setup. :P:D:)

Hi Chris, all my male 'madi' one by one after giving birth. Can't find the reasons why? Just happen like that......anyway, I still have 5 ###### females looking for partner. Do keep a look out for me......Thanks!!!!!

As for the enviroment setting is simple. DIY overflow system with lots of liverocks. A simmker, one return pum run thro' a UV than to chiller and back to main tank. Temp - 27 to 28 oC at all time. Food wise, fresh water shrimp, forzen mysis brought from wet market, mix with cyclopeeze. Used to enrich with selcon but not now. Once a mth. feed with live msysis catch from sea side. Water change, 30% twice a week. ;)

Can I know how you all separate the bbs totally from the shell after you hatch it?

after they hatch out, close the air supply, let it seat for 5 mins or more, the empty shell will floats up, while the bbs tend to swim downwards, then u use another air pipe to siphon the bbs out to another container. :)
