I have always wanted to try seahorses and I want to turn a 55 gallon reef tank into a seahorse tank. I recently setup a 125 rr tank and I am going to move the corals and fish into the larger tank and use the old 55 gallon. this is how the old 55 is setup. I have a 1400 remora pro skimmer, hob fuge loaded with pods and cheato appox 80 lbs of live sand and 75 lbs of live rock and 3 K2's for flow and a 4 x 54 watt T5 w/ mh light this tank has been up and running a year and a half and is very stable. I would like 3 pairs of tank bred SH's.
any advise on equipment ,flow, lighting is welcome also inverts and fish that I can have with seahorses or maybe a good website with lots of info would be great. I have sucess keeping 1 mandarin in each of my other tanks and I wonder how much harder seahorses would be? I also hatch brine for my mandarin's.. sorry so long winded I just have a lot of thoughts on this subject and I want it done right the first time
