Yes, I could see Rocket's tail! And I spied the seahorse on the gorg (that looks so little in your big tank) the first time I looked.
My ponies can hide well too when they want to.

I'm setting up a roughly 300g (60" long, 30" wide, 45" tall pentagon) display with 40g sump for temperate/coldwater seahorses (h. abdominalis, and maybe h. hippocampus, and h. guttulatus) as well as a few other peaceful, slow-moving fish (an ornate boxfish, a white-barred boxfish, balloon lumpsuckers, atlantic spiny lumpsuckers, a cherry blossom anthias, catalina gobies, and if I can get them, grunt sculpins and japanese white-girdled gobies). I'm also planning on 6-10 coldwater soft corals, zoanthids, gorgonians, and corynactis. Just need a couple more pieces of equipment.

BTW, for all of those asking where Colby Johnson got the Weedy Sea Dragons, he got them from Steve McLeod (https://www.facebook.com/steve.mcleod.372) who has a license to capture a gravid male Weedy each year, return it to the ocean after giving birth, and then he raises the young.

Sounds like it will be beautiful! Build thread? Those Weedy's are amazing!
