I cna't really find anything on these guys, I've checked out the seahorse sites and googled them, but from what I gather, they are one of the smallest and hardiest of the pipefish.
would this setup work?
10g (maybe? size of tank would be helpful)
AC50 or larger for small fuge possibly
rubble for LR (lot's and lots, I prefer aquascaping with rubble anyways)
lots of macro diff species and lots of cool colors and stuff (maybe I oculd put cheato directly into the display area...)

I'm thinking a male/female pair, or maybe just one and a firefish (I miss my old one :*( )

I would apprciate it if someone could give me some more info on these little guys, I'll try googleing them right after I finish writing this.

let me know of any revisions you would make and etc... I had an extra tank lying around so I thought I should set it up...:p

:strooper: sorry just liked that smiley

I think I'll just get one and a firefish, if there won't be a prob, after reading a bit, I see that it's hard to find pairs and that the males are really aggressive with one another.
