i also just saw that your tank is jut cycling. so ill also assume that you dont currently have a mature tank for them. if that is the case, I would highly advise waiting until you have a proper setup that is mature and has a good high population of pods and other little food stuffs living in it.

When you buy seahorses you HAVE to buy captive reared. NEVER wild caught because they do terribly in home aquaria, most due to the fact that many never even consider eating prepared food. that said, the live food in a mature tank would act as a buffer of sorts until you figure out how much you need to feed your particular horses.

a seahorse tank is not something to be taken lightly. they are one of the more challenging animals to keep and require lots of discipline.
