Nice shot vipjd39. How long have you had the tank set up?

Fred

 

[vipjd39]

thanks. we had a 55 gal that was setup for about 3 years (we've had it for the last year) but needed a larger tank so we bought a 125 and moved everything over about 2 months ago so its still a work in progress.

 

[acrodave]

i got to know how u got them all in the same shot

 

[vipjd39]

they know when its feeding time cause we always turn the pumps off first so when that happens they all swim over to the 'feeding station' which is that red algae in the pic so i took the pic when most of them were hitched to it. most of our horses look at us when we take pics of them... here is 1 of the horses looking at us..

 

[Fredfish]

Cool. A lot of people think that you can't keep horses in large tanks because it will be difficult to feed them. I always figured they would find a feeding station no problem It is nice to see an example of it in action.

Fred

 

[vipjd39]

yeah its pretty simple.... we feed using a turkey baster and when we get a new SH we spot feed for a day or two so they get used to seeing where the food comes from and then they see everyone else eating at the feeding station and join them. its easier for them to eat in one place that way we can make sure everyone is eating.

Well, it's not gonna be winning any competitions, I'm sure, but here's my 29gal. I've had my ocean rider seahorses (1 pair mustangs, 1 pair sunbursts) for 1 week now. Tank was cycled for almost 3 months before.
