I've kept seahorses for the last year and a half. Tried tigger pods, artic pods and rotifers. I see the pods thriving in my SH tank, my sump and my refugium. The only food that mine have ever ate is frozen mysis. Tank is plumbed into my system but flow is very low in their tank with just a koralia nano. As for rocks you should have some that have "points" sticking out so they can wrap their tails around it to anchor themselves. Good luck as keeping seahorses is a bit of a challenge to figure out.

I did try before and during with the pods. Mine would only eat frozen Mysis or frozen Brine shrimp.

its not my first attempt its just i want it set up so its easier than the last time, i had a pair of reiddis in a 12 gallon eclipse tank for 2 years ( i went away for a week and it didnt work out to well having a friend take care of them ) but i dont want to constantly be breeding brine shrimp and buying live food. i figure if i take my time and let a food source build up or find some ponies that eat frozen it will give me more of an opportunity to enjoy it without it just being work.
