![]() Originally, I wanted only female H. whitei seahorses so I wouldn't have to raise any fry. As it turned out, in the last shipment of H. whitei from my trusty supplier, three males developed from the young SHs I was sent. Knowing there might be fry produced, I looked for and found some folks to take the fry after they were born. However, at the last moment they backed out, and we reluctantly scrambled to set up an extensive brine shrimp hatchery and a fry raising set up.
Our male that has been producing fry has become sick and I am not sure I will be able to get a local vet to prescribe the med required to help him. Even if I am able to nurse him back to health, the consuming nature of raising fry is doing me in both physically and emotionally. I also have a younger male who may begin breeding soon and producing fry. His fry would also need someone to raise them. So, I am looking for someone locally who can take the bs hatchery and fry raising set up. If no one is available locally, I am willing to ship the current brood of 10-15 11 day old, and any fry the younger male produces. FYI, H. whitei are subtropical and require year round temps of 72-77 F. Please PM me if you are interested. |
