Hi reefers! I’ve been keeping lined seahorses for a little while. I was on a website one day and I saw dwarf seahorses that were for sale. After looking into them a little bit I decided I would like to get some after I return from a vacation in late September. I just have a few questions…what do they eat?…I heard mixed information on what they eat, some places said baby brine shrimp, others said copepods, and another said live brine shrimp….where would be good places to get the food?….if at all possible, I would like to feed frozens, that’s what I currently feed all my seahorses….would it be possible to feed dwarf seahorses frozens?…any and all advice is welcome and appreciated :)

Some dwarf seahorses are already eating frozen depending on where you get as some places do tank raise. You can also train them over but will take patience and some timing. They will eat pods, baby brine, anything small enough to fit in their mouths just like your others.

There is a lot more info than I have given and plenty available info as well. Some opinions may very lol

Thanks for the reply! Do you know where I could get them already eating frozens?
Biota I believe possibly, but you can search online to see. Also shoot an email to verify. Get everything in writing lol. There are several people on here I'm sure that have actual experience with this. I am not one of them lol. But what your asking is possible/available.
