FS Mated pr Erectus Seahorses plus Female

I've decided to sell my three erectus captive bred seahorses. The mated pair have produced 3 broods that I know of. I just don't have the time to raise the babies.
They were purchased from Draco Marine --the females in 06 and the male in 07. They are 'chocolate' erectus and do have cirri, but have pretty much rubbed most of them off from rubbing and sliding around the rock work in their tank.
They will come with some frozen mysis (they eat PE frozen mysis) along with a full bottle of Naturose powder (enrichment for their food--will last years).
I'll even throw in the meds I have on hand just in case (never had to use them)--triple sulpha, neomycin and diamox.
They are all great horses, love to dance for their dinner and are healthy and beautiful specimens.
The male may even be pregnant now--they were doing their mating dance this afternoon. (So babies in two weeks?)
I don't want to ship, and would prefer pick up only. If you are within 40 minutes of 44646, I can meet half way.
The price for the three (they must be sold together) is $250. Erectus captive bred are really getting hard to come by now since Draco is not selling anymore.
You have to have a species only tank...no aggressive fish, just a few docile tankmates. The taller the tank, the better. I keep them separate from my reef since they also need cooler tank temps ( between 74-76*) Snails, hermits, peppermint shrimp are the only tankmates they have been exposed to.
The purchaser must let me know their tank specifics before I okay the sell. I want them to go to a responsible seahorse keeper. They need fed at least twice/day--prefer three times a day. I have a 30 Gallon X-tra tall tank & wrought iron stand available to go with them (extra $) if you need a tank for them.

Here is a video of them at dinner time--Oh, they will come with their shell dish too
I take paypal, cash and credit card payments. PM if interested.
Thanks~

Thanks boozerell..they are beautiful. Someday I hope you can get some. They are amazing creatures to watch and take care of.

Aadler--LOL, I sure understand that. That is why I am selling these...I have upgrades I need to do for my 125 and need the $$. Wanting to get a controller.

Here is the obligatory 'baby' picture of one of the females when she was just new. I think about 4.5 months old.
