Well, "easy" isn't a word you can use when caring for seahorses. Both Seahorses and Dwarf Seahorses take a lot of extra TLC.
This was my first set up a 15 gallon tall, a few pics are missing~

dwarves need a tank bgiger then 2 gallons and no bigger then 10. i would do alot of studying before i would consider them, they are quite different from there larger cousins. they have different needs and different set-ups.

No prob!!! We'll get you in the saddle soon enough but... wooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaah.....slow down there cowgirl..don't trip at the starting line
although I love your energy.
Take time to read these threads. It will take 4-6 months to cycle your tank for you seahorses, so you'll have plenty of time

So you want a Seahorse.....
