Nice looking tank.
I just wanted to mention though, that from other posts, you are still planning your tank.
Keep in mind, that the minimum tank requirements for a pair of seahorses is 29/30g. With a 35, and already having that scooter blenny pretty well makes it fully stocked if you put a pair of seahorses in with it.
Putting more fish will mean even more diligence with husbandry and with rock in the tank also, it makes it much more chancy for seahorse LONG TERM success.
When I look back on my failures, and now, on losses that locals ask me to check out, the biggest thing I found/find is decayed food that matts together and doesn't blow out with powerheads, and being unseen, one doesn't know about that mass that is the breeding grounds for the bacteria that so often kill off our seahorses.
I only find this after tearing a tank apart to look for reasons for losses.
