We have a kudo seahorse. She is captive bred and had been eating for 3 weeks at the LFS. She has been home in our 35 gallon tank for about 2 1/2 weeks she is the only occupant other than small hermit crabs. She was eating frozen mysis at the fish store. At first in our tank she was mostly eating cocopods or whatever was on the live rocks. She has eaten some frozen mysis shrimp but not many. The past 3 days she has not been eating. Today she quit holding on to the seagrass and her other posts. We bought some live mysis shrimp and she watches them but doesn't eat them even when they land on her head. We have tried putting the food right at her head with tweezers-she panics and spins agains the sand and rock. What else can we try she looks very thin.
We the temp is 74 nitrate and ammonia are 0. our live fish store tested the water tonight and verified our numbers.
Please help she is our seriously ill daughter's first seahorse. We have other reef tanks.
