im wanting to set up a seahorse tank and have been trying to look stuff up but most of it is really confusing so any help would be great i have a 20 gallon tank
 
Your post is rather vague. Is there something specific you need help with? Is it confusing because you don't understand it, or because of conflicting sources? I would caution you against seahorses to start if you're struggling to understand their requirements.

Otherwise, here are some articles to get you started:
10 Things You Should Know Before Keeping Seahorses As Pets.
Keeping Seahorses: Three Keys to Success
RayJay's MY THOUGHTS ON SEAHORSE KEEPING
Care sheet for captive bred seahorses (PDF)
 
A 20g tank would not be recommended for a pair of standard sized seahorses.
While it could be done, it would take a way more husbandry than most people would be willing to do on a continual basis.
There are some links at the bottom of the page "My Thoughts on Seahorse Keeping"
written by experienced seahorse keepers and a commercial breeder that can be a big help to getting started in keeping seahorses.
