Who has a Red Sea for their seahorses? Anyone? I have a 250 mixed reef and thinking of adding a second SH tank and wondering what success others have had. I’ve read the 6 intro articles already, super helpful!!

Also, meant to ask on which model you used. I assume the nano 20 gal incl. sump) is too small for a pair of redii or Erectus, so I’m thinking the 170?

if I had my way I would go with a RS 250 to match my new 750 :D
waiting on the GF to get a 2nd kitty so I can have a 2nd fish tank. sound fair to me eh?

all joking a side I think the 250 would be a great Sh tank. 170 min. IMHO. see my thread on "perfect" size SH tank might give you some good ideas.
I just meet a guy near me with a 40br SPS Sh tank he has 4 or 5 Sh in there one of the best SH tank I have seen.

so if $$ is tight ( when is it not in this hobby eh?) a 40br would do the trick as well. that is my back up plan...

I’m in the process of transforming my old LPS dominated Reefer 250 into a Seahorse tank

Planning on one pair; maybe two

It’s still under construction but you get the idea
