I need help dwarf sea horses please

[redhotlynn]

I got 4 of these little guys yesturday and I hatched bbs for them but the eggs floated out in the tank and went in the filter needless to say I have none this morning what can I get fast to feed them!!! ?

Wait, so you hatched BBS then put the eggs in the tank? I don't understand... when BBS are hatched they are alive and moving around. And you should turn the filter off when feeding them.

What size tank do you have?
How did you cycle your tank?
What else in in the tank?

You can get decapped brine shrimp from seahorsesource.com and if you call them, I'm sure they could do an overnight delivery.

Hopefully you've done your research...

What's going on redhotlynn? Is it working out? And if you could answer my Qs from above, that would help me help you...

I have them in a 12 gallon nano cube with sand one live rock and some gorgonia trees there doing good i am hatching shrinp now. i had my water tested and they said it is good.

Ok...onre more question:

Where did you get your live rock and gorgonians? and did you treat them for anything?

And only 4 dwarves for a 12G is wayyy to few, you could easily keep 15 (60-70 max). It will be really hard to keep the feeding concentrations high enough for only 4.

Oh, and how did you cycle your tank?
