It has been an interesting couple days. Typical NC heat wave rolled in. Tank temp has shot throught the roof. Last I checked it was 81.3. Turned that off. I will probably have to start looking into chillers now. GF is really not going to like me spending that kind of money. I also have been...

LFS will be getting horses on saturday, only downside is that I will not be getting mine yet. I now have and ammonia problem. Over the past week, it was sitting around 0.5 and today I checked it today and it is now at 1.0. I have also started to notice I am getting brown spots all over my live...

LFS has a suplier that he gets them from in the state. The gentleman just opened the LFS and has another store several hours upstate. He told me that his original supplier sold him wild seahorses and told him they were captive bred so he stopped buying from supplier. LFS owner also has 3...

We haven't discussed adding macro algeas really. We just started tossing around the idea of coral. Light is a Coralife T-5 10,000K and Actinic. Tank finally 74 degrees tonight. It was sitting at 63 when i first put in water. Heater was set at 79. I'm keeping a close eye on it though as I'm...

Finally got some new pictures up. Had to get rid of almost the entire old set-up. Only thing left from the original is the heater, tank, and stand. Got lucky though and found out the local college has set up a salt water filter and UV steralize straight from the ocean for everyone to use so...

I really like those. I like the dusk and dawn setup. I had that on my old tank and really enjoyed it. Getting filter tomorrow..... Christmas Eve.......Will hopefully have new pictures tomorrow.

the tank is 30 inches wide and the canopy comes out about 3/4 inch on each side so i would say 28 inches

At this point in time, we are not doing any corals. Maybe down the road but not with the seahorses. I just saw a spray bar for the first time and i really like the idea. I was actually thinking about putting that in this tank but try to hide it under the lip at the top of the tank. the only...

So I think I might go with a Rena Filstar Canister Filter. I have never had a canister filter. What is everyone's opinion?

Lights were the first thingto go. I have to figure out how a new lighting system. I don't believe this came with a filter system although it did come with bio-balls. I will have to look into it. That is the part I'm not 100% sure on. I don't know a ton about those so i'll have to do a bunch...

Figured it out. Since purchasing it, I have cleaned the tank and taken out all the lighting. Pic 3 shows some of the old lights. they were in really bad condition. broken and rusted brackets. I'll have to figure out what will fit in the canopy and not overheat the tank.

well i purchased the setup. I was going to try to post pics though the process but apparently I don't know how to resize photos. Also, apparently, I have a completely different setup than what I'm used to. Will have to try to figure this one out too.

I am looking to start a seahorse tank. I have had saltwater tanks in the past but never a setup for seahorses. I recently moved and was unable to take my tank. I am looking at purchasing a new one. I think i have found one but was looking to get some advice from others, so please tell me what...
