Just started cycling a ten gallon

[Betaktical]

It's not my first tank I just had a bunch of equipment laying around so I set up a 10 gallon. My question is what can I put in it? Open to all suggestions but I want to do something out of the ordinary. I was thinking maybe sea horses or a slug. Something different. Any other suggestions?

I heard slugs are hard to care for. I wanted to get one myself, but was adviced not to

I'm all for sea horses, but am concerned that a 10 gallon might not be big enough for them. I would think a 20 gallon would work better for that. My next tank will be sea horses, so I've been doing so serious research on it.

Unless you mean dwarf seahorses that tank wouldn't be suitable for any seahorse.

A Watchman goby and a pistol shrimp... Maybe a sexy shrimp and a small anemone for him to shake his butt on?

Thanks for the replies. I have seen the sea horses in a 3 gallon before and of course they would be dwarfs. Still not set. I have also thought about the goby shrimp paring as well. The mantis shrimp would be a cool idea I might start researching one of those

+1 on the Mantis Shrimp, you could get a N. Wennerae

Harlequin shrimp!

Can you buy like a chocolate chip starfish to feed them with or does it have to be a special kind of star fish? I have read a little bit about them and they look really awesome

Seahorses or pipefish would be good.
