Sounds good, just have to wait till we move (not long now!). Looking forward to setting it up

How would you cycle the tank? I was thinking of maybe getting the filter, saltwalter from the sea and coral sand from jansens, placing it in the tank and putting in some shrimps / things from rockpools. Would this work? I would be using tap water + salt for water changes after this so would this effect the bacteria? How did you cycle your tank alisha? Cheers!
-
Ah that was my other question For water changes and first filling up the tank, do you take it from the sea or make salt water yourself? I think I read on the seahorse farm site that they can supply the stuff that makes seawater. Cheers

$6.00 for a skimmer?!!? Cheers for the info. I think I will get a bigger tank and try then. Maybe a 4-5ft tank. I have seen coral sand for sale at jansens. I think it's about $18. When you order the seahorses, can you choose females/males or is it random? How do you tell the difference in the gender? Cheers.

Auckland Zoo has AFC .. they look cool eh !

Thanks alisha. How big is your tank? I was looking at getting 4-5 seahorses. Do you have anything else in the tank with them? Where'd you get the sand from? How many times a day do you feed them? Cheers, Chris.

Not yet Pies, but I am definitely setting up a 'cold water' one when we move. The thing I forgot to ask was, on the site it says to use a Cannister filter and there's no mention of a skimmer. So would it be all sweet if I just used a CF? Alisha - how do you aerate the tank? Cheers!

She lives in Orere (sp) Point near Kawakawa Bay. Not sure if it's a WTF area though?

Do they ever hatch?
-
Thanks for the site Alisha. Have you tried to breed your seahorses? How much do they charge for a seahorse? Cheers
-
I don't think they are too serious about getting rid of them as afaik they don't harm native species as they live in totally different areas. Alan - my aunties farm has 3 ponds with thousands of tadpoles, if you want I can get you heaps closer to nov/dec, but I can't gurantee they will be whistling tree frogs..

It would be cool to have a pond with catfish in it .. but I wouldn't have a black one otherwise you wouldn't see them very well.

Doesn't the plywood soak the water up ._<?

No, he means this one: 8' Tank There's also a 6ft: 6' Tank

You could divide that tank in 2 and make 2 breeding tanks from it but make sure you have big tanks for the babies to grow out.
