if your gonna try it set up a video camera. ( my vote would be that youd have an octo with a seahorse in its stomach in about 5 mins)

Absolutely no !!! The octopus is a predator.

pipefish and seahorses are generally compatible

Seahorsestarter ,Welcome to Canreef. I'm not sure if I would try to keep a Octo together with a seahorse. A good place to ask that question is tonmo.com a site dedicated to octos and cuttlefish. They have a good understanding to what can be kept safly with octos.
