Perhaps you already have some seahorses and you are now interested in taking the next step and trying your hand at breeding them and raising them to an adult stage. Perhaps you have been trying to breed them for some time but they are not feeling the love! Or secondly, you have just looked in your aquarium and noticed for the first time how swollen the males' pouch has become, which indicates he's carrying fry. Or worse still, you've just noticed your aquarium has dozens of tiny but perfectly formed baby seahorses swirling around in the water flow that you had not expected! Whatever the reason applies in your case you will find the help and advice you need within these pages to successfully raise your baby seahorse from birth to adult. Breeding seahorses is not usually a problem, (especially with Dwarf Seashores) as they are often referred to as the 'rabbits of the sea' - if you know anything at all about rabbits, you will understand the point I'm making. However, the difficulty comes with raising all those babies, that's when the hard work really starts - it's almost a full-time job! In this book I will show you exactly how to do that, from birth and setting up a nursery tank to feeding them and right through to weaning them off of their baby food and on to a more convenient frozen food that you are already feeding the adults on. These are tried and tested methods that work really well in a home aquarium set up. I have also included a chapter relating to breeding Dwarf Seahorses but as their needs are so much easier it is likely the shortest chapter in the book! At the time of writing Dwarf Seahorses were not available in the UK. However, in late 2023 several breeders were trying to import them into the UK and recommence a breeding programme so that might be good news for UK enthusiasts. Much of what is written here is also applicable to dwarf seahorses, with the exception of nursery tanks - dwarf fry don't need them, they stay in the aquarium with adults! For the purpose of this book, I have to assume you are not a complete beginner and you have been keeping seahorses or Dwarf seahorses for some time, successfully and without any issues in well set up and healthy aquarium environment.

Seahorses are an exceptional and fascinating fish that live in coastal areas around most of the world. Only a few years ago keeping seahorses was not widely encouraged, due mainly to the difficulty in feeding wild caught specimens as they would not readily take frozen food. The supply of live food was often unpredictable and of uncertain quality, which meant keeping seahorses alive could be very challenging. Wild caught seahorses, being more used to hunting natural live food in the wild, knew nothing about dead, frozen foods!However, more recently, keeping seahorse in an aquarium has been made easier due to widespread captive breeding which has played an enormous role in keeping seahorses at home. As many species are now more commonly raised from fry in an aquarium, they are subsequently weaned on to and then reared on frozen foods from only a few weeks old. This has made it possible for you to set up a successful seahorse aquarium at home and even breed them if you want to. All it takes is the right equipment along with some sound advice to set you on the path to success.This book contains all you need to know to get you started in this fascinating and rewarding hobby. From buying the equipment and setting it up, buying your first seahorses, to feeding, routine maintenance, dealing with ailments, and breeding them, it is all in this one book.

As a beginner's guide, it is written in an easy to understand format without the need for technical or complicated jargon, covering not only the basics but also the more important points you need to know for their health and well-being. I have included a chapter on breeding seahorses because several of the species will breed quite readily in the aquarium if provided with the right conditions. It is therefore important to understand something about the breeding process and how to successfully raise the fry - should you decide to give it a try.For convenience, the book is in two parts; Part 1 covers all aspects of the essential equipment and setting it all up, along with advice and recommended on aquarium sizes and filters etc. Part 2. Focuses more on the seahorses themselves and their general care in your aquarium as well as other fish and critters you can keep with them. This includes reference to seahorse friendly fish and corals as well as some well-known seahorse enemies. Breeding is also covered in Part 2 and is actually the longest chapter in the book!There is further information relating to the near desperate plight of the seahorse in the wild, which could become extinct in the next 20 to 30 years in some parts of the World, unless major changes are brought into effect - fast!

The seahorse is an amazing fish that is a wonderful aquarium inhabitant despite the fact that they are not as easy to care for as most fish. There are approximately 52 species to delight the aquarist and they can be kept on their own or with other fish and certain invertebrates. This book will introduce you to these fish by looking at the different species, discussing their appearance and biology, typical seahorse behaviour, their feeding requirements, one-of-a-kind reproductive cycle and other things that make these fish unique. It will also tell you what you need to know in order to decide whether or not this is the pet for you and, if it is, how to select your seahorse, what you need to buy before you bring it home, and how to take proper care of it and keep it happy and healthy. The serious hobbyist must know what these fish need with regards to their environment. All the necessary equipment and water and other parameters are examined as the quality of the water and the general environment has a crucial bearing on the health and happiness of seahorses. The seahorse is unfortunately susceptible to a number of different types of bacterial, parasitic and fungal infections and infestations. Anyone who is serious about having a marine tank generally and seahorses specifically needs to know what to look for and how to deal with common ailments. This book also contains helpful information on their reproductive behaviour, gestation, birth and on caring for the fry for those who are interested in breeding or find themselves the proud foster parent of babies that were not expected!

The global trade of aquatic organisms for home and public aquariums, along with associated equipment and accessories, has become a multi-billion dollar industry. Aquaculture of marine ornamental species, still in its infancy, is recognized as a viable alternative to wild collection as it can supplement or replace the supply of wild caught specimens and potentially help recover natural populations through restocking. This book collects into a single work the most up-to-date information currently available on the aquaculture of marine ornamental species. It includes the contributions of more than 50 leading scientists and experts on different topics relevant for the aquaculture of the most emblematic groups of organisms traded for reef aquariums. From clownfish, to angelfish, tangs and seahorses, as well as corals, anemones, shrimps, giant clams and several other reef organisms, all issues related with the husbandry, breeding, and trade are addressed, with explanatory schemes and illustrations being used to help in understanding the most complex topics addressed. Marine Ornamental Species Aquaculture is a key reference for scientists and academics in research institutes and universities, public and private aquaria, as well as for hobbyists. Entrepreneurs will also find this book an important resource, as the culture of marine ornamental species is analyzed from a business oriented perspective, highlighting the risks and opportunities of commercial scale aquaculture of marine ornamentals.
