Testimonials – Ocean Rider Seahorses & Livestock

Sorry, I missed your call to see how my new horses were doing. They are doing amazing. words can not express how happy I am with them. Thank You!!!!! Can you tell me when you think you may have Gigante® Hippocampus Ingens – available again? I am very interested in getting a pair of those as well.

Thank you so much! Again, they are beautiful!

Thanks so much for these two seahorses, they are stunning. They are huge! I really appreciate all the years you’ve provided seahorses to me. I take care of a lot of them, and when I get them from you they are always healthy and eating!

Have a nice weekend.

I just got my Spikey pair. They are beauties!! They were both moving all over in the bag as i was acclimating them. Just let them out of the bag and they are swimming all over the tank.

Thank you so much! Again, they are beautiful!

I received my package about an hour ago. The packing was great! Heatpacks were still warm and the pony´s were very active! I have acclimated them and they are very active and beautiful.

The ponies arrived safely and in good health. I´m very impressed with the quality of your stock. They look exactly as shown in your product photo.

All arrived in great shape with kicking seahorses and not one dead shrimp. My old guys from you gobbled up the 1st bag of shrimp and are looking for more! The new pair have settled down they are still very stressed (like me after a long flight)! I´m seeing an orange brown type color right now and time will tell after they feel at home. The new pair is the perfect size not to small and not to big. The female is amazed with micro hermits! No snicks on them yet but she can if she wants to. Thank you for such prompt service and over the top packing.

I would just like to thank you for the fantastic seahores that arrived today. The sunbursts were a nice yellow color. After full acclimation the horse are swimming and eating frozen mysis like they have been in the tank for months. Far exceeded my expectations. Thank you once again.

I have had my Mustangs 3 weeks today. When I received Sally & Sam the packings list indicated FREE PREGANCY. I found 4 baby seahorses this am. I have carefully captured them & placed them in a collection box within my tank, added a small air stone and put about 4 drops of “Life A” in the box. The little herd is doing quite well and very active. What else should I be doing for feeding them? By the way, Sally & Sam are my first pair of Seahorses and it has been so satisfying to have such healthy and beautiful seahorses. This has been worth all the years Ive waited to have a Seahorse Tank and accidently finding Ocean Rider Seahorses was my greatest find.

I am thrilled with my new seahorses. After years of dreaming and about 6 months of planning, I finally decided to take the plunge, and I am so happy I shopped with you. Your customer service is great. The captive-bred path is truly the way to go. The horses were happy, hitching, and eating right out of the bag! They interact with each other and the environment, and they watch me watch them! Thanks, and I look forward to ordering from you in the future!

Just to let you know Spikeys arrived. Loved the colors. Acclaimated very quickly. I am very happy with my order and hope to order more soon. Thank you very much!”

You did the BEST! They are beautiful. I am so excited. Had to take off work today just to see them. Picked them up at about 8:40 this am. Thanks so much. Talk to you soon. Now that we are so hooked on seahorses.

OMG. This pony is really spectacular! MAHALO! What a regal animal. He’s almost done acclimating now. Thanks again.

Just emailing to say thank you for working with me to bring me two beautiful H. erectus seahorses. I am thoroughly pleased and they are doing very well so far. When they first arrived, one was slightly tipsy, but I believe this may be due to the fact that they had not seen light for two days. They are now both doing fine in the tank set up. The lighter female seahorse is especially doing well; she has shown no signs of sickness or over-stress at all. I am feeding them piscine frozen mysis. I will be sure to keep in touch and let you know of any changes. Thank you much!

Just wanted to let you know that Trigger, Sunny, Milo and Venus arrived safely 2 weeks ago and acclimated quickly. The ladies really scarf up the food at their abalone shell feeding station. Milo has been the “shy feeder”, but after reviewing the forum (again and again) I didn’t get too nervous or panic, he wasn’t concave so may have been eating ‘pods when I wasn’t looking. I started target feeding him since he wasn’t going to the feeding station and he’s getting much bolder now. Trigger is all a stallion should be: boy or girl, he wraps tails and dances! After 9 months of planning for them, they have really exceeded my expectations! Mahalo! Pete’s down to earth guides and advice are priceless! He is the reason I learned that I could confidently do this, especially with your exceptional seahorses. I cringe when I see seahorses on the ‘net for $19.99. I believe you get what you pay for… and I have no regrets for the cost. I love all my fish in my other reef tank. But seahorses evoke a much higher emotion…more like my dogs, cats and birds. Some day in the future in a bigger house, I’ll have a bigger seahorse tank and you can expect to hear from me again.
Thanks!
