    I'm guessing that the Seahorses are tank raised. I also have a 29g tank with live rock, and my daughter wants me to get seahorses. The pics look great. But I was woindering about snails. Are they bad for the seahorses?

    No they're not bad for the seahorses. I have thee snails in there with three hermit crabs. I put the crabs in the tank to help eat the left overs

    Yeah, I'd love to have some Leafy Seadragons too but the cost is prohibitive, to say the least. An amazing animal.
