thanks for the photos, my kudas are coming this evening and i've been curious as to what they'd look like since the website only has one picture. The description says they are "bright yellow" but in your pics they look brown- are they indeed brown? I just want to know what to expect so i'm not disappointed when i get brown kudas instead of bright yellow ones. I do think they should change their description though if the colors in your pictures are accurate. They are beautiful nonetheless, congrats on your new seahorses!!
Mine are more brown than yellow. But I'm sure they range in color and can change color as well, so you may end up w/ one that look a lil different than mine.

I might have to buy one of their sunburst now so I can get a real yellow one. hehe.

Dennis-

Wow, they are beautiful, I can't believe how active they are 1 hour after you put them in. You tank is very nice too.

I'm still planning how to setup my tank. I ordered the deluxe sea ranch 50g & I'm waiting for it to arrive to I can start the cycle. I'm curious, how big is your tank & how much LR did you put in?

What is the neon green sarco, it's really nice, I'd love to have one as a feeding station. When I googled it, I couldn't find anybody that sells them. Is it hard to take care of, or do you think it's good for a beginner?

In the most recently posted pictures. There's this bright pink flower-like thing, what is that? It kind of reminds me of a feather duster.

Anita

Thanks for compliments. It's a 15g show (30x10x12) and I have about 25-30lb LR split between the main display and the sump tank below.

Neon green sarcophyton aka toadstool leather is the full name. They are somewhat harder to come by. Got mine from platinumreefs.com (as well as the bright "pink flower-like thing" which are coco worms/featherdusters).

Neon green sarcos are relatively easy beginner corals, as are most toadstool leathers...coco worms need a more established tank to be healthy and phytoplankton feedings once a week would be beneficial. Coco worms dont have a long life span apparently, so they may not live as long as your seahorses.

hope that helps.

They look great!!

They appear to be a pretty nice size. About how big are they?

Thanks,

Leslie

Re:My kudas arrived! A++++ to oceanrider! - 2005/11/01 12:46 I am also thrilled with my Mustangs. I've had them about a month and they are doing so well I plan to order another pair. Their colors change constantly. I have bright yellow artificial coral and pink coral. They are almost impossible to find in the tank because they change their color to the item they're attached to. They eat the frozen mysis and even pick them off of the bottom. I thought the food had to be moving for them to see it. I have them in a 20 gallon tank with three neon gobies, plants and some snails.
