Seahorses & Pipefish:
Notes From Penny: Pipefish offered to date are wild
collected. All my pipefish are
eating both PE Mysis shrimp & Cyclopeez. All
Seahorses offered here are Tank Raised/Aquacultured.
Please!
... NEVER buy wild Seahorses!
Seahorses
are over collected and many are in danger of extinction! Only
Dwarf Seahorses are acceptable to purchase wild.
Many of the larger species are now aquacultured so
please be ethical and only buy aquacultured seahorses.
Note: Pictures of Seahorses below are
examples only. Understand they have the ability to
change colors and patterns radically.
