I be surprise if she would sell it. I think she would be against it.

Found this section in the book regarding the pet topic. Line 4-6.

They still sell them on the main seahorse website as food but they are expensive as hell!

Crazy. To feed an endangered species of this kind which has such a long lifespan. I mean why? Do the seahorses even care? Why does it have to be Opae ula?

The Opae ula Diet helps colour up the sea horses very well aparently.

So do the Alpha's live just as long as their Opae Ula? One of my friends has some that he's willing to give me hopefully. He's going to switch over to all freshwater shrimps. We'll see. I've been pushing for this for some time now ever since he wanted to change over.

Looks like you & Odin have had yours for years. Any chance you can get the larvae to survive? I'm sure you have tried.
