I'm not sure what black ones you mean. Seahorses can actually change colors. I have kudas that are yellow, but someone else on here has kudas that are black. CB seahorses are always much, much easier though IMO. I would definitely put them in their own species tank. PonieGirl has had success mixing her seahorses with other fish, but most people don't. They do need hitching posts, you can use plastic plants or tree sponges. Tonga branch rock works well also. Corals are not a good idea b/c they can get stung if they hitch on them. Let me know if you need any help, my daughter is having a slumber party for her birthday tonight (lucky me) so I don't know if I'll be back on much today. I'll check this though when I get back on here.
