I am getting my three new seahorses tomorrow, they are going into my 55 Gal. It's been up and running for 7 months now, I cycled it with aragonite, some live rock, three damsels ( they are removed now), currently there are two cleaner shrimp in there and a sea cucumber. I'm running a power head bio-wheel filter and a 75 skimmer,T-5 HO light, this was my first reef tank.
Ph = 8.2
Nitrates =0 ppm
Nitrites =0 ppm
Cal =410 mg/L
Phos =0
Temp = 77 - 78 F
Just looking for some pointers

It looks pretty good to me. You might want a few more hitches. Maybe add some macros, and a little more base rock. Shaving brushes, and maidens hair are good, also the feather stuff i have. (Cant think of the name) also red kelp.
Its a good place for pods to hide, and horses like to hunt in them.

PS What species. You might try to bring the temp down just a hair. maybe add a small clip on fan.

Thank you very much, I just adjusted the heater so I'll bring it down to the 75 - 76 f range, I have caulerpa and red kelp in there already, and i'll add some more rock tommorow. The species are the Black Seahorse, Hippocampus fuscus.
I will post some more pics tommorow or friday when I get the horses in the tank.

Like I was telling you these Gobies are awsome sand sifters, they don't stop. The little hole they dug under the rock is where they go at night, Please excuse the pics my new camera will be here soon.
