I PM's billsreef, but he wont talk to me.
My ten gallon reef broke and most of the stuff died. I decided to do what I've been planning to do for a LONG time... Set up a seahorse tank with lots of macro and seagrasses.
I've already got the new ten gallon set up. It has a ten gallon sump, Remora skimmer, 175 watt 20,000K MH, 3" sand bed and 10 pounds of live rock. The rock was slavaged from the old tank along with 1/3 - 1/2 of the water.
I want this planted with seagrasses that will provide the seahorses some good hitching posts. I've got three different species of macro already, razor, grape and something that looks like lilly pads (?). What grasses would be good? Pics would be great.
In one PM from Bill, he recommended iron suppliments. I really hate dosing anything. He also mentioned fertilizer stakes, which sounds good. What I want to know is if there is any reason I could not mix in some flourite or laterite substrate used in planted freshwater tanks?
I want the tank to look something like this, though I don't have enough room for that exactly:
Any help?
