nano questions

ok so I wanna add another tank to my room i have a ten gallon tank and im thinking about buying a eclipse hood system with a bio wheel and full spectrum lighting, my question is whats the minumum wattage I need to keep some soft corals and zoos? also do i need any form of powerhead or is it not needed in a 10 gallon tank? i was thinking along the lines of some soft corals a cleaner shrimp or so or maybe just a few seahorses. help!!!

I'm going to move this to the nano subforum. I think you will get better responses there.

I don't think you will find any seahorses that would feel comfortable in that small of a tank.

you could do dwarf seahorses in there, but they require ALOT of special attention. they need to be fed 2-3 times with live bbs, so having cultures of them would be necessary. check out seahorse.org for more info on them.
