Dear Lucy:
Sure thing — I’d be happy to send you some detailed information on successful breeding protocols for Hippocampus reidi and H. barbouri that have been developed by aquarists on this side of the pond. Just shoot me an e-mail at the following address, and I will reply with the information (the files are too big to be posted on this forum):

Also, please tell us more about the new fry food that is working so well with H. reidi babies in the UK, Lucy. No doubt regarding keepers here in the States would like to hear all about this fry food since, as you are no doubt well aware, anything that makes the newborn and juveniles easier to feed is a real bone for the home breeder.
Best of luck with your prolific ponies and all of their progeny, Lucy!
Happy Trails!
