Mini Seahorses

Any small seahorses that grow to about 3inch?

Just asking, just interested.

There are quite a few species, but one of the most commonly available is Hippocampus zosterae. Max 2"

-Nemo-, a member here, is setting up a "pony" tank right now.

Kelwoo has also successfully kept seahorses, though hers I think were larger, but the basic setup is the same. Not an easy system to keep.

Hope this helps.

The smaller species are meant to be incredibly difficult to keep, far more so than the bigger species!

Need to be kept in a really sterile environment.
