I haven't been on the forums in a while. I reviewed all 7 of your youtube videos. You are my hero!! I'm so amazed and impressed with the amount of planning, preparation, and DIY work you've put into this build. Truly inspiring!

Great work!

I've kept a single seahorse for over a year now after the other two died. She likes to play in the current and will come up to the glass when I approach. I don't think there is harm in keeping her by herself. I think the biggest factors to keeping seahorses healthy are temperature and high water quality. Anytime the temperature creeps above 72 degrees or I fail to do water changes in a timely manner, I notice her start to stress. Once parameters are brought back into order, she does well. I think the purchase of a chiller is mandatory for successful seahorse husbandry. I am currently nursing my seahorse back to health after a bacteria infection grew exponentially when my AC was out for two days.

I lost every seahorse I tried to keep until I invested in a chiller. The temperature is set to 70 degrees. This keeps the potential for bacterial infections much lower. Go to seahorse.org for excellent information and resources. I highly recommend you set yourself up with a username and join the discussions. seahorsesource.com is a great company to purchase tank breed seahorses. The owners are very knowledgeable and very active on the seahorse.org forum.

Good Luck!

I don't know what fish it's safe with, but my favorite freshwater crustacean by far is the dwarf orange crayfish. So much personality!!

What price would you sell me the 12 gallon

I'd go down to $90 for just one of these aquariums. $150 for both.

I'm extremely lazy when it comes to testing my tank parameters. Quite simply, I don't. It's probably not best for my inhabitants, but I usually don't do water changes until I need to clean the algae off the side of the tank, my seahorse seems stressed, or I notice the macro algae growing out of control. I also don't have many corals in my tank. I have one seahorse, several photosynthetic sea fans, macro algae, and several types of snails. I only test alkalinity when I do a water change (which is once every few months). Other than that, I top off the tank when the water lowers to just above my pump.

Yes. I still have either one. Send me a pm and we can arrange a time for you to come take a look at it.

both for $150 - take them home tonight!!

Sorry for the late replies. Yes they are still available and ready to go! PM me.

Don't go outside to play with the dog while re-filling the mixing station (sideways glare to boyfriend ).

On that note, upgrade your entire floor to tile.

Yes, both are still available. The best way to contact me is through PM.

The Biocube (needs to be cleaned, hood included but not pictured):

Thanks for the shout out JR. I love my girl. I learned a ton of information on seahorse.org. There is a library of free public articles and resources. I highly encourage you to join their discussion forum. You'll be able to dialogue with some of the most experienced seahorse keepers and breeders. I think the most important piece of equipment for keeping my seahorse sucessfully is a chiller. I lost a number of seahorses to disease until I purchased a used chiller from the forum. 24 gal is enough for one or two seahorses, but not more.

Excellent question. I know it's at least 12K. I don't think Aquatek had any available at the time I purchased these that were 14K. I'm gonna say 12K. If you know of a way I can check using the colors of the LEDS, let me know.
