Im begging ya please stop with the meds and let this creature of Mother Nature do its thing if he’s breathing fine and is hungry n eating please put him back with other one. I don’t know if u are aware but seahorses are a community living in groups they don’t do well by themselves and actually get lonely,, the mirror thing doesn’t work
Mark I had a ponie with same thing going on like yours has and as long as his breathing and appetite were ok I left him alone,, then one day the problem was gone and he is still with me,, that was over year ago
Diamox is reccomended for gas bubble but it is really hard to get.
What is the Temperature in your tank?
Need a prescription for Diamox and QT is 73 and main tank is 74.5.
In thge main tank he bloats very fast and is floating horizontally on the surface. struggles to swim and doesn't get much food.
The QT he seems more upright but still floats a little bit; plus he gets plenty of food to eat.
If you’re gonna leave him where he’s at then at least stop medication it’s unnecessary brother he’ll let out a big fart sooner or later and be ok
@MadReefer Have you tried reaching out to SeahorseKeeper or vlangel on R2R? There's also a lady I know on Facebook who is a Seahorse breeder. I don't want to give out her info publicly, but PM if you like.
Yes, I have and she was the one I took advise from. She posted two sticky's there about seahorses disease and treatments.
