SH in a 10 gal?

[ashtree68]

I have a 10 gallon tank, with some soft corals, 2 False Percula Clown, a fire fishm and a banggai cardinal fish. I also have a couple of shrimp and a sea urchin. I do weekly water changes and have had the tank set up for about 3 months now, and it was cycling and set up for about a year before I received it. Could I add a pair of dwarf sea horses or will they not be compatible? The temperature stays about 73 degrees and has medium flow.

Idk man you're talkin about putting 6 fish in a 10 gallon. 4 may be pushing it as it is. Also it seems like it would be hard keepin em fed with faster fish in such a closed in area. Imo you're better off keeping sea horses in a taller tank with slower fish like pipefish and garden eels.

The clownfish will likely eat the dwarf seahorses for dinner. That is a lot of fish for a ten gallon. Remeber that dwarf need live newly hatched baby brine shrimp for food.

If the clowns didn't eat the dwarves, the cardinal fish most certainly would. In a single gulp.

Very few fish are compatible with dwarf seahorses.

+1 to all of the above. Do not put seahorses in your ten gallon.
