For our 2.5 gal, I'm now half-considering mini horses, if available locally, that is, along with a few other factors.

What makes good hitching posts? I've got Tonga branch rock and a chunk of halimeda in the 2.5. Would these be suitable? Here are some photos of the tank. Suitable, do you think?

I would have to remove the aggressive feeding clear peppermint shrimp, though, if seahorses were to be added.
