Caring for Dwarf Seahorses

Thank you, everyone, for your help thus far. I have contacted someone about a custom acrylic tank. Here's what I had in mind.





Sorry about the spelling errors; I drew this up late last night. I'm not sure if I want to do acrylic on the doors any more as it's kind of expensive. But this is generally what the stand should look like.

 

i had one very similar that i had my anemone and clown pair in because they werent getting aong in my other forty. there you can see the maroon hosting the green carpet

 

excuse the algae its quite an old picture i hav e since converted it to a reef

 

I am thinking something like this for the lights. The seagrass won't need intense lighting...I think these are like 6500-8000k?

Edit: never mind...they have touch sensors for on/off. lol. That won't work so well..

 

very, very nice setup you have going here.

 

Shop Feit Electric 12-Watt 5-LED PAR30 Reflector Bulb at Lowes.com what about something like this

 

That would be great, bvb.

Maybe if I could find a smaller bulb version of that? I want my canopy to be somewhat shallow. The drawing above shows it at 3" high.

 

Maybe this? 2.25" high. Just 3000K though. That's a yellowish color.
