LOW FLOW is the WRONG way to go. You want at a minimum, 10X flow but more is better.
In almost 13 yrs I've never had a round tank, always rectangular of many sizes.
The only round "tank" I've used is a muck bucket nursery for raising fry.
In my years here and on the "org" I don't think I've seen even 1% of hobyists using round tanks for their seahorse displays.
I don't consider them to be EXTREMELY fragile, at least not in the way I think you mean, but they are very susceptible to damaging/deadly bacterial and parasitic influences.
