Are the sea horses from Cramers Caribbean Critters healthy? I know they’re wild caught so I’m leaning torward the more expensive captive raised. How does collecting the dwarf seahorses affect the species in the wild?

wow very nice colorful seahorses you got there… how much would it cost to ship these seahorses? would it be a good idea if i buy seahorses that are fully grown?

Tigertail seahorses are extremely difficult to come by these days. I have a single male, and he arrived as a fluke as part of a shipment of “colored” tank raised seahorses. I’ve heard similar stories from others. That was last spring, and I’ve been checking local stores with no luck.

ORA used to raise them but stopped. I don’t know the details but it sounds like their business isn’t doing so well and they have cut back on the fish they’re raising. I’ve also heard from hobbyists that raising the fry is proving to be difficult.

Can you post the place in the UK that has them? I’d love to find out who their distributor is. Maybe if enough people are interested, a supplier could get them in.
