Pipefish Or Seahorse..

[Terryz_]

hi... thinking of keeping a 1 ft tank in my room.... which is more hardy... pipefish or seahorse... and wat fish to put with it...

Pipefish easier feed. They wean onto frozen food more readily than seahorse. You can keep gobies with pipefish. That's my setup.

[real]

one feet tank too small for pipefish, isn't it? In terms of hardiness, if your pipefish is willing to take frozen food, then I guess it has better survivor rate than seahorses. SH very disease prone.

but i got info from net tat keeping pipefish or seahorse in a smaller tank will help them get food easily...

2x1.5x2 ft tank is consider small in marine keeping. Anyway, 1ft tank is a bit small but if you readi insists, get whose mini size pipe and dun forget the smaller the tank, more mantainance is to be done.....

[ong]

Much more difficult to maintance good water quality

Also, waste builds up quickier in a smaller tank and lesser tolerance level of error.
