My 25 gallon sea horse tank.

[Jordan55]

Well thank you!

Can you link me to that site?

 

[Swanwillow]

seahorse.org used the search button for kuda...

 

[Jordan55]

Ahh... thanks... but it also says Kuda can get up to 12 inches.... while erectus can get up to 8.

Jordo, would you like me to post some pics of my Reidi I had? Lemme know if you do.

 

[Jordan55]

Please do.

I am anxious to go to work now on Thursday to snap some pictures.

This makes me very upset!

 

[AEALOVESHERGIRLS]

No problem Jordo...

Lemme know if you need more.

I was just at the Jacks at Graceland, and they had some sweet seagrass type algea for $10. I forget what the actual name was....but when I saw it is looked like the perfect type of algea for a horse to hitch on.

BTW...how are the babies doing at work???

Hey Amy!

I am getting my horses from my work (See occupation )

Sweet!

I wish I could hear someone talk about horses.... it would be very interesting..... so mark me on your jealous list.

He was a great speaker too. If I hear of him going to any other clubs or events near to you I'll let you know.

But I have to speak out and tell ya Amy.... it would be real cool if you got some also!

That is totally going to happen! It might not be till the summer time though. I am setting up a breeding station in my garage for my clownfish pairs, and am thinking a few horses would be fun too. :rollface:

CJ- Yea... seagrasses require a little bit more extensive care than most of the "regular" macros. Not to mention a nice big DSB. But thanks for looking out!

We put the babies in the fuge the night they were born... and we haven't seen them since. It has been 2 weeks now. We are not too worried because we do not plan on trying to raise them as of yet.

Amanda- I think our horses look similar to yours! They do not have the horizontal lines on them, but they colors and markings are perfect! I am eager to get to work to snap pictures of our horses.

Amy- Breeding station would be a blast. With sea horses, it would be super fun! But make sure you have a nice display tank inside

 

[Jordan55]

Got this picture off his site... untill I can get some pictures tomorrow.

Two different kinds here?

I do not think the lighter colored one is still there... it was one of the first ones shipped out I think.

 

[AEALOVESHERGIRLS]

Jordo, looks just like my Reidi!!!

 

[Swanwillow]

it does look like two different kinda to me-reidi and kuda.

about the only differences-adult size (yes-in the wild, 12 inches is common, but in our aquariums, realistically-8)

reidi have spikes
and longer snouts... Kuda got stubby-ish snouts in comparison. reidi also have 5 points on thier crown (ummm, at least, I THINK its the reidi-silly seahorses)
kuda's crown is tilted back, while the reidi have a crown that isn't tilted back (that part I have problems with-and some kuda have high crowns, or low crowns...oh, cornets, not crowns..duh)

otherwise, they are exactly the same. if you look at them from thier back, if you see spikes on thier bodies, chances are they are reidi. if there are no spikes, they are kuda. you can see in the yellow reidi pictures the spikiness of thier bodies... kuda just don't have quite that amount of spikes.

 

[Swanwillow]

ok-here we go, the things I don't understand about the cornet are here: http://forum.seahorse.org/index.php?showtopic=25153

 

[Jordan55]

Well I think it is not Kuda.

Someone on Seahorse.org helped me out.

Reidi crowns

Kuda crowns

I am still going to snap some pics tonight and make sure.

 

[AEALOVESHERGIRLS]

Jordo, I loved my reidi! They would eat anything, live or frozen, they weren't afraid of people being all in the tank and everything and they were quite active(for seahorses). I'm sure whatever you get, it will be nice.

Gday!

Looking good mate!:thumbsup:

The whole gang is here....:eek2:

 

[Swanwillow]

hehe, my reidi look like a cross....

glad they could help ya, though!!!

 

[Jordan55]

Thanks Amanda... I am almost positive that they are all Reidi, but, like I said, I am going to take some pictures.

Josh- Glad to see you here! You still have that 40 gallon pipe/sh tank back home..... no.... not ur USA home your birth home!

Swan- Thanks for making it clear though that my horses were not erectus! You saved me!

 

[Jordan55]

So I got a few pictures of 3-4 horses. Hopefully they are all the same, but some look a tad different.
