I am in the process of making a dwarf seahorse tank out of a Marineland either 3 or 5 gallons. The problem I'm running into is feeding the little guys. I understand that the norm is to feed bbs and bs, however, I also understand that in their natural habitat they eat mostly copepods and mysid shrimp. My idea is to gut the back of the Marineland tank and keep a ball of cheato (treated for hydroids) in the back with some dry rock rubble to act as a refugium for pods. Since I suspect the number of pods would not be sufficient I would dose phyto-feast to boost the population. The cheato would be a source of nutrient reduction as well and water changes of about 20% could be done either weekly or monthly depending on the nutrient levels. In the display, I would grow Caulerpa and some other macro algae's, I'm also considering doing one photosynthetic gorgonian. Tank mates would just be a few snails and maybe a cleaner shrimp or something of the sort. I would also mod the tank to have much much lower flow than the stock pump. It would either be lit with diy Cree leds, an AI Prime or a kessil A80.
