On Sunday, at OA, I picked up a back issue of "Coral The Marine Aquarium Magazine", Feb./Mar.04 Vol.1/Number 1 & it's devoted to Seahorse rearing, including breeding & raising the fry to maturity. The front cover has a picture of a baby seahorse emerging from it's Potbellied Daddy, so I couldn't resist. I'm a sucker for a pregnant male (The pic is actually in AI MAN's member gallery.)

Great pics, awesome articles, real good info & details & best of all, only about 10% of the magazine was ads! It's has better, newer info on rearing captive-breds than alot of books out there so for $12, it was worth the investment IMO. If you're into seahorses, the pictures are amazing. You can actually see pics of them mating, giving birth, etc. Tells you how to set up breeding tanks & rearing tanks. Food.... It definitely goes into my "To Keep" shelf. I love the internet (who doesn't, eh ) but I still like the feel of opening a good book or magazine to get some good info. Recommend you look into picking one up if you want a small but comprehensive Seahorse reference
