pipefish

Looking to add a pipefish to my 24 gal nano, my lfs has a blue banded pipefish that is eating mystis that I want to pick up, but I’m concerned because I have a big emerald crab in my tank. I also have 2 mini carpet nems and 3 RFA, 2 porcelain crabs, fire shrimp, yasha goby/ pistol pair, clown...

I currently don’t have any seahorses, pipefish or clingfish but I find them absolutely beautiful so if you have some photos make sure to post them! Let’s see who keeps clingfish :)

I ordered 5 Anthias and 3 dragon pipefish from LiveAquaria. Can I drip acclimate all of them in the same bucket or do i need to separate them?

Hi, Just got a quarantined pair of dragon faced pipefish last Thursday. Both were wrapping around each other, moving around the tank and eating pods/frozen Mysis. Yesterday the larger one stopped moving around as much, wasn’t eating even though I could see pods in front of it and it had some...

I just lost my last dragon face pipefish. I’m thinking I won’t add this species anymore unless I confirm their natural life expectancy is fairly short. All my dragonface pipefish have been full grown and they all fed on frozen that they caught from the water column, as well as pods. Same thing...

What do I do? I have them in an Icecap fish trap. I know they’re likely going to die but how can I try to keep them alive?

I have 4 dragonface pipefish that have been doing great in my 75g for months. I feed frozen brine/mysis/cyclopods and they eat a bit of frozen but mostly forage for pods. I want a pair of mandarin dragonets but I wonder if they will outcompete my pipefish. My pod population is booming and I keep...

So I have 2 pipefish in my tank. They've been in there for about a month now and get along with every single tankmate. The tank is a 55g, that houses 2 pipefish, 1 melanarus wrasse, 1 occelaris clown, 1 firefish, and 1 royal gramma. Today when I woke up, one of the pipefish was hooked onto the...

I keep a nano reef with a blue striped pipefish. Anyone recommend any specific corals or macro algae?

So was just watching my mandarins spawning hoping for them to release eggs and sperm when all of a sudden my pipe fish came up to the surface and gave live birth to over 20 baby’s I managed to get a few into pots but have no idea what to do I’ve put them in pots floating in the sump any advice...

After posting about my refugium over in the macroalgae forum I decided why not post up my whole build progression while I'm at it. First off, I suppose this would be considered a budget build by most standards, and/or DIY, nearly everything was repurposed from old builds during my last foray in...

Hi there, *My questions: - Where did you source yours? - Has anyone had success easily sourcing a pair? - Would you recommend businesses like LiveAquaria when it comes to Syngnathidae? - Any tips? I've been deep diving on research of pipefish and hope to acquire a pair for my tank. The...

This morning I had the opportunity to go fish collecting in Tampa Bay and, although we didn't catch the specific species of killifish that we had hoped, we did collect Rainwater Killifish (Lucania parva), Southern Puffer Fish (Spheoroides nephelus), and Chain Pipefish (Syngnathus louisianae) as...

Hey guys! I'm looking into getting a blue striped pipefish for my 32-gallon cube and was wondering what your experience has been with these little fish? Also, where did you guys get yours from? My LFS rarely has pipefish and I don't really trust them when it comes to having healthy fish anyways...

Hi all, I've been scouring the web for Red spot cardinal fish (Apogon parvulus), and Yellow Multibanded Pipefish (Doryrhamphus pessuliferus) does anyone know of places to find them? Best, Mr.Acro
