Potbelly seahorse question.

[Oiva]

Hey guys

So my gf picked up a pair of potbelly seahorses. We always wanted a pair, and they are kinda hard to comeby here in Norway. But a good friend who owns a LFS got these the other day so we picked them up.

Question i have after browsing the interwebz, is what tank size is ok for a pair?

I read some place that 60L is ok, right now we have them in 75l Elos mini that has been running for 4 months with a pair of clowns, we moved these to another tank. We do have 225L with another pair of clowns that are curently spawning.

This was suppose to be our seahorse tak, but like i said, they are hard to come by.

Now picture time.
