My Seahorse tank pics :)
 

This is our 46 gallon Bowfront Seahorse tank. It houses a pair of reidis. The arrangement is fairly simple with a few pieces of liverock, two seafans and lot's of different types of macro algae.

Hope you like :)

Seahorse tank
 

Nice tank simple yet very pretty!! GOOD JOB:mrgreen:

Pretty ponies :)

Cool!

What do you do for current in there? How much LR? (Is that piece of rock on the right a piece? Did you do anything to "de-bristleworm" any rock that's in there)?

Cool

always wanted a Sea horse tank but always been too scared to try

Beautiful tank and sea horses

Thanks guys :) I just reccently moved them over from a 20 gallon tank, so this tank is looking a little "bare" still. I'd like to add maybe a bit more rock and some more macro, like red grape and feather caulerpa. Also I'd eventually like to acquire another species, maybe one who's fry are easier to raise.

Tony,

The filtration on the tank is an Eheim 2213. Its pointed along the top of the tank so the flow along the bottom is adequate but not too strong. I think there's around 7 lbs of rock in there, maybe a little more. And yes, theres a little pile on the right side of the tank too. I found with the 20 gallon that it was so full of stuff that I had trouble seeing my seahorses. I've designed this tank to provide them with lots of hitching posts, but also to be able to see them in the tank.

I did do a freshwater dip on this rock, but I didn't de-bristleworm it. I know there are a few in there, since I find them under the food dish occasionally. Raf and I picked out a huge sucker the other day. But honestly, I don't mind them in there since they take care of any food that escapes the dish and the ponies don't find.

Looks awesome, I love seahorses. Now where did I put that extra tank.
Now I need a species tank for a Volitan and a snowflake one for seahorses and one for an octopuss. Oh and a wrasse tank and a...help me! :)

Some nice pics. Looks great. How long have you had them ?

I've had them for a year now. :)

And honest to god, they have had babies every 2 weeks since the day I got them. Quite prolific! We even lowered the temp on the tank to try and get them to stop mating so frequently, but it hasn't seemed to work. ;)
