surely, you mean you've only had him a few months? that doesn't look like a juvenile seahorse to me.

I only got them during the first week of November and they were barely sexable at that point.

He looks sexually mature ... he's likely about 6 months old or so.
6 months is when they start becoming sexually mature ... but he certainly didn't waste any time. Handsome reidi by the way.

while gestation varies a bit, it usually takes just two weeks for a pregnant male to have babies.

Nothing yet, but he's still big.

Are you going to try and save the fry, if so what steps are you taking?

I think he's giving birth right now. I see no fry yet, but he's jerking around.

Did he have them? You're on day 15. My reidi give birth on day 15 almost every time.

Yep. It was wild to watch. I think I got a bit of video. I'll try to post it later today.

reidi can be tough to raise. some hobbyists have had success with kreisel systems and feeding marine rotifers and/or newly hatched BBS of the smallest type (SF, I think?) regular BBS is too large for reidi fry. if you aren't ready with nursery tanks and live food, they usually don't make it.

As of this morning I couldn't see any. In retrospect, I wish I would have at least moved them to my fuge to give them a fighting chance. I did feed baby brine shrimp (I think Instant Ocean makes it. It comes in a small jar.) Now that I've been through it once, I'll be better prepared next time.
