Gestation period for H.reidi

[Dman]

Anyone know how long the male holds the little ones for? A search for gestation period in the Seahorses forum yielded nothing.
Is it temperature dependant?
Luis,
This could be an opportuninty to write a "how to" book a la Wilkerson or Hoff

Its approx 14 days, but may be more or less. Mine pops them out at 15 days, but I'm always ready incase its 14. My temp is about 23 deg.

What's your temp, as its going to vary depending on it. I'm unsure how much it effect it, but don't think it would be much different

Welcome, Molly09!

Agreed, 14 days is a good average. If you are not already registered at seahorse.org you should be.
