    What's a seahorse safe power head? I have a 55 gallon should I put two? One on each end to help circulate the water?

    I've been doing a lot of reading on seahorse care and the different seahorses. I am used to tropical fresh water fish. My infant loves watching them and I've wanted to start a seahorse tank for years and haven't gotten around to starting one yet. My question is can I use my 55 gallon hex front...
