12g Nano for pipefish & seahorses

[Jennfindingzen]

Just added two pipefish this evening. Banded and dragon-face/network pipefish. I have found a new love for them. Waiting an extra week to get a pair of black seahorses. As I thought I had lost the peppermint shrimp, I bought a replacement and discovered two swimming around now.

I can't wait to add the seahorse and additional peaceful fish. This has been a fun, addictive experience. I just want more and more.

Sooo pretty! I love the nano tanks... We have just purchased a 125 gallon tank that we just set up last night, and it has endless possibilties, but, I REALLY want a nano tank! Steve has the 125 gallon (with of course, my expert opinion on how to decorate it, lol) but I want a nano tank JUST FOR ME! LOL!

Should you be doing anything other than dwarf seahorses? Also what is your pump gph for that tank? Seahorses require a tall tank that will allow them to swim vertically.

So far little black seahorses and one dragon faced pipefish have survived this tank. Regular fish have come and perished. My ammonia is zero and nitrate usually less than 10ppm. Keeping it dedicated to seahorse now.
