i would do 2 clowns. sea horses are very expensive and take alot more care then fish.

sea horses are cool looking but they are boring. you know that they don't move around a lot and they are harder to take care of. I wanted sae horses too but then i saw them in someone elses tank and didn't like them. just my preference. plus some of them get pretty big so check there tank size requirments first.

You can get 2 sea horses, the ones that dont get big. The dwarf seahorses. Only problem is, it might be hard to keep them in a small tank??I have kept a seahorse (6inchs) in my 20gallon tank for about 8months now and people like to say "they are hard to keep" and with my experience, I think they are moderate/easy to keep if you take care of your tank like your suppose to. 
by the way the dwarf sea horses are inexpensive...compared to the big seahorses.

If you are interested in dwarves, it is recommended to have 1-2 per gallon. But be prepared to hatch baby brine shrimp every day.

Yup, feeding is the hardest thing. Thankfully, I got mine to understand that froze foods are just as good as live ones.
