Thinking about seahorse

[nodwell]

Have a few extra $$ lying around and have always wanted horses. Thinking about a 29 high tank with refugium. Would prefer a refugium I could place under tank but am open to HOB model. Does anyone have any suggestions on equipment needed for this set up? Any comments/knowledge on raising seahorses in general is welcome.

Thanks
Don

CPR Aquatic sells a nice H O B and just started selling an undertank model, have a customer that uses the hob and loves it, I use a canister filter on my horse tank and a skimmer, some live rock, zoanthids a finger leather and assorted gorgonians. They do very well and are easy to keep on frozen mysis, make sure you buy only tank raised, they are all I have had any luck with. Tank mates are a yellow headed jawfish, and a yasha hasha goby (sp) some blue legs and a couple of peppermint shrimp. Of course check out the seahorse forum on here as well!

Thnaks Jim,

I had already read about tank raised vs captured. I'm going to check out your recomendation now. Probably be back with more questions soon.
Thanks for the input.
