Hi all, I always loved seahorses but stayed away from them for quite a few years because of an ill fated experience I had with them as a newbie marine aquarist. Finally about 4 years ago I began researching them and considered giving it another go.
Seahorses and macro algae go together well. Seahorses create a very heavy bioload and macro algae need high nutrient water. Also macro algae make wonderful, safe hitches for ponies. They are perfect together.
My 1st tank in 2014 was a 30XH for 1 pair of seahorses. I connected it to the sump of my 36g bowfront reef. That way I only had 1 set of parameters to watch.
