I've had both WC and CB and had good and bad experiences with both. CB seahorses can go off eating when shipped like was said before, I found a small power head moving frozen mysis around the bottom often would get them to take some food and once you get them to start they learn quick.

Seahorses can be very tempermental, put a lot of research into what you are considering and for starters I'd stick with H. Kuda (black kudas) or go into dwarfs as they tend to take to brine shrimp.

I've been looking for a breeder in Canada and haven't found anyone yet but for a price one of the pet stores will order some in for you. Right now J&L has some H. Redei but the price is (wow) $180 each. They had some tiny kuda's but they were very expensive as well.
