I am sooooo weak!!!!

That is what I was just thinking. I saw her hitched down low in the tank staring at the sand. She may be eating the shrimp off the bottom of the tank. I asked these questions on seahorse.org too. I was told that many horses that eat frozen wait until it is on the bottom. I feel a little relieved, but will keep a close eye on her.

I wish I knew what type it is ..... its orange with purple stripes.... it looks sweet... its in my wifes nano tank... comes out to eat

She is definitely eating!!! I just saw her lean over and grab 3 or 4 shrimp! Maybe she is thinner because her tank mates had been quicker eaters? Anyway, this has got to be the most laid back horse ever. :P Maybe once she has more food in her over the next couple of weeks she will liven up slightly... either way...she's great!

Apparently, Bill's horsies just had another batch of babies! (for sale thread). Wish I was set up to care for them. :(

Originally I was asking Mathias, but where did you get yours?

Luis at AW

I got lucky they were a male and female, I did not know until close examination, so of course, a pair had to go together :P
