AN UPDATE Sept 10 2004 : My seahorses

[ltay]

Hello Bev

After work at 4:30pm , reach home 4:35pm. I work close to office... lucky.

5pm-5:30pm: Water the large rooftop garden and the kitchen deck garden. Lots of flowers blooming now....
Feeding seahorse daily : around 2 hours or so... I did enjoy looking at the those beauties during the feeding sessions. Waited until 8pm-8:30pm, another round of final feeding before light goes off at 9:30 pm.
During this hour, I also need to care for the 175 g tank and the refugium.

Easy Preparation:Quick rinse in clean seawater to remove soaking solution of selcon and vitamins. The mysis would have already been soaked right through with selcon+vit during the previous night before sleep. This way, I would prevent too much excess organics introduce into the water. I noticed if I do this, the water quality is better.

Mysis are dropped into tank or using tong -one by one (to doggie train them) or into the feeding station at the last serving to see the frenzy. They all now love to gather around the feeding station the moment I am near. Cute.
