Can I mix Captive Bred and Wild Caught seahorses? What about CB horses and WC pipefish?
I keep hearing I should buy Captive Bred seahorses and not Wild Caught seahorses. What does that mean and why should I care?
Why haven't any of my lfs heard about cb seahorses until I came around? They all told me seahorses were impossible and they couldn't even keep them alive in the store.
Why would I want to spend two or three times as much money on a CB seahorse when I can get a wild seahorse a fraction of that price? I realize it is hard to get them to eat frozen but I am willing to give it a really good try.
Why would Captive Bred seahorse be so much more than Wild Caught Seahorses?
Seahorses are all endangered species. Didn't CITIES decide to list all seahorses as endangered back in November 2002? Now I read that only h. capensis (sp?) is actually on the endangered species list.
