MAAST TOTM - November 2011 - leliataylor

[BSJF]

This month, Cheryl (aka leliataylor) shared her elaborate Seahorse Propagation System with us. Cheryl has dedicated much of her life and home to the captive breeding of seahorses.

This thread is devoted to Cheryl, so come and sit for a while and ask her questions about this setup. If this isn't enough for you, we will also be highlighting video of her tanks at our next TOTM Social -- TOTM Committee

Fantastic set up and such a wonderful, dedicated and knowledgeable owner!

[Kristy]

Dedicated is right! Wow Cheryl, your system is incredible!

[BSJF]

Hope you you get your well back soon. I'm still wondering how I could convince my husband to build me an addition to accommodate my hobby. :confused:

[Europhyllia]

I think the secret is to go husband-free ;)

i am speechless! just unbelievable dedication. great job as always totm committee!

[Texreefer]

your dedication is impressive...Thanks for sharing.

[leliataylor]

Thank you for your wonderful replies. I have spent the last several years of my life dedicated solely to seahorses. It is an addiction. I kid about it, however I work a full time job to support my seahorses. I remind my sons to remind me when I am suppose to attend parties or family gatherings, otherwise they will find me cleaning tanks, culturing food or setting up new tanks, oops missed another party. I am still not where I want to be and may never get there. All for the love of seahorses.

Wish I could have seen this setup in person. Dedicated is feeling I came away with after seeing Karin and Lorraine's pics of Cheryl's setup.

Amazing dedication and patience to raise sea horses my hat off to you and congrats on TOTM.

[zerreissen]

Wow, your setup is absolutely amazing!

[BSJF]

I wanna know how much time it takes you each day to tend on all this precious lives?

[leliataylor]

Thank you all. Some people say I am committed other say I need to be. I spend about 4 hours a day taking care of seahorses, tanks and cultures.

[Europhyllia]

LOL

I can totally envision that! (the hours you spend). I feel like I am constantly cleaning sieves and containers at this time. At the scale you are doing this 4 hours actually sounds like you got a pretty good routine down!
