I was talking to a guy down at the LFS. He said of of his customers has breeding seahorses, but can't get them to life more than 4 month. It's kind of strange, but that seems to be the threshold right now that they can't get past. Hope You have better luck.

If they are dying at around 4 months than it is normally from not feeding them correctly, i.e. HUFA / vitamin soaked food like selcon. 3-4 month deaths are normally long term feeding quality issues. See if you can get the LFS to recommend that the customer goes to www.seahorse.org and get some help. A very terrific, knowledgable, helpful group...
