Dwarf seahorse biotope

Looking for info on the native environment of the dwarf seahorse. I understand they typically live on eelgrass (zostera marina) but, in a 10 gallon can you grow this large type? If not would zostera noltei be a suitable (and biotope accurate?) replacement?

I am also looking for any info on other species (inverts, etc) that are in eelgrass ecosystems and will not disturb seahorse breeding.

Final question, is miracle mud underneath sand required for eelgrass? Are there alternative substrates? Can plain sand and root tabs work?


Any other tips about breeding or tank setup is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
