Hey everyone! I need some opinions.
All right, here's what I would like to do, but I'm getting a lot of input first. I have a 10-gallon freshwater tank that I'm going to convert over to saltwater. It's original use was going to be used as a hospital tank for my other new incoming fish in my 65 gallon tank, whenever my tanks ready for them. Here's the thing.. My LFS had some yellow seahorses (I don't know the species name) and they were probably in a small six-gallon rect. display tank. Something like that. They told me that the seahorses would probably do better in a smaller tank, than in my 65 with all of the other fish that might be coming. It sounds reasonable to me. I know they're slow eaters and need stuff to hang on to. They can't swim for long periods of time. I was hoping some of you might have opinions about seahorses, or have dealt with them. Do you think 10 gallon would be okay? Can I get more than one? If I do get them, it won't be for many months. I'm going to do a lot of reasearch, because I know they're kind of hard to take care of, etc. I've always wanted a seahorse, so I hope maybe I can do this. Thanks for the help!
