Sherry(snfkotara) has one with a digital display that you could post pictures from. Haven't heard from her in a while though.

Well, I can send one with you and you'll just need to get a microscope slide before it dies and press it until you can get to a microscope. Do any librarys or schools offer that for free?

[justahobby]

Hmm.....Let me get back to on that after I do some checking around. I'm pretty sure I can do it in the Biology lab at SAC. I need to find slides though. I had looked before and they are sort of hard to find. There's a hobby store by Texas Tropical that I will check at.


.............WOOOT this is going to be wicked!!

[Mr Cob]

COOL! Yeah, I'm pretty stoked too. Can't wait to see what the heck these creatures are.

off topic but, where are you planning on getting your dwarf sea horses from?

Not sure yet. My wife and I picked up a good book though: The Complete Guide to Dwarf Seahorses IN THE AQUARIUM, by Alisa Wagner Abbott.

On subject... So I post actual pics and everyone disappears and has no IDs for me...

They kind of look like little Pac-Man ghosts don't they?

[Kristy]

They DO look like the Pac Man ghosts! I think you have little UFOs in your tank.

[Mr Cob]

I counted 5 tonight.

I'm sure captive bred seahorses would be best, but if you are ever here in the Corpus area I know of a spot where you can catch some. You need waders to get there and alot of patience. Travis (Tropicana) and I must have made 200 scoops with a bait net and came up with only 6. One of the males was even pregnant which was really awesome when I saw him going through labor. I kept them in a JBJ Nano Cube 24. Sadly 3 of the guys went through the over flow and didn't make it. The other 3 and 5 of the babies were returned and released back to place where I found them. They are really small so you will have to be careful with them. Just thought would share that with you. Cheers and Good Luck.
