Yes, I use one pump and instead of the stock lights I got a 24" Tek T5 fixture. I use a fan to keep the temp down.

No problem Tom!

Thanks Jeff! Honestly the adults are not that hard. You just need the right environment and healthy seahorses. I actually love this tank because it is so low maintenance. All the macro keeps my nitrates/nitrites/phosphates at 0.

Well, the babies are doing well at 2 months old. Most of them are on mysis and I have about 7 left. They are all looking very strong.

I also got some new broodstock for this tank. Here are some pics of them in QT:

And, the ponies may be getting an upgrade to a 60 gallon cube! There was one guy in line ahead of me for it but he never called the seller back, so he has until 3:00. If the seller doesn't hear from him, the tank is mine! I should be able to pick it up tomorrow.
