Seahorse food??

[Boltthrower]

Hi Guys. I would like to know what alternatives is there for seahorse food instead of brine shrimp? Is there any prepared or processed food available I can buy from LFS? Can someone recommend? Thanks for all the help

i just got 2 vietnam cultured seahorses today.

they are not reacting to brine that i fed them just now, but before i got them, they were already feeding on mysis.

but the thing is that the mysis are still rather big for their mouths, so i am worried that they might not be able to eat enough.

any suggestions as to how to get them to eat, in the event that they still do not eat?

Is better to feed them on mysis and not brine shrimp since your is from vietnam, they will not have problem feeding on frozen mysis.

Also try not to feed them on live food after that you will have lot of problems and they will refuse frozen food, it happen to me.

I have not bought Mysis before. Are they available everywhere or they are only available in certain LFS? What's the price?

It's avail in most fish shop...but not all sadly...Think freshwater fish shop shouldn't don't have them.

you can tried to get a big box from any of the marine LFS. Price should be around the same as brine.

Cheers. Hope it helps.
