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 goes for my pair of mandarins that I successfully kept for well over a year now. But dragon face pipefish only seem to live 6months-1 year. I wonder if their natural life cycle is 2-3 years and by the time they make it to the LFS they are all adults.
