Group care guide

Seahorses and pipefish

  • Calm, tall tanks with hitching posts, cooler temperatures for many species, and peaceful tankmates.
  • Verify the species and demonstrated food intake. Many larger captive-bred seahorses eat suitable frozen foods; Hippocampus zosterae requires small live enriched Artemia nauplii in the cited care guide.
