Welcome to R2R!
I'd love to setup a seahorse tank someday.

Hello! I’m Francis, and from San Diego
I’m usually known for having a service dog, owning/rehabbing the random unique/exotic/oddball fish, and replicating academic-validated fish treatments in related research within the seahorse hobby In terms of my tanks, I own a 55 Gallon long mixed-reef tank dedicated to the Coral Sea habitat for my initial pair of hippocampus comes, a minimal-bare bottom 40 Gallon acrylic tank with plastic hitches for the pair of histrix (will transform in a couple of months to a more natural set up), and amphipod culturing set ups. Also have a smaragdina copper 20 Gallon long, planted walstad habitat w/ filtration (for flow) living with 9albino topaz guppies, vampire shrimp, and bamboo shrimp
Due to my interests in animal behavior protocols, psychology, and marine biology, the reef + seahorse habitats I have and will create are generally not recommended due to the variety of challenges that can arise; but the mixed reef+seahorse project is an exception to that rule, hence why I joined the forum to learn from other seahorse-reef hobbyists out here on this forumI hope to learn and to spread knowledge as well, so more than welcome to help attached are photos of my seahorses:

Welcome! Glad you joined. SUPER COOL - would love to learn even more from you!
Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state.

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:

I’ve been “threading” the waters so the speak, and may start add one for the histrix natural habitat setting!
I just uploaded a thread this morning on a replication of a study I found in the Experiment Forum/Thread; it has attachments of the 24hr-1 week results) with a drug known to most fishkeepers for it’s used in euthanatizing/anesthetizing properties… Clove Oil! The link to the replication thread can be found: Clove Oil Replication Experiment for Managing Cilliate Infections in a Reef . I hope this pique’s members!

Thank you! I hope so; was touch and go with them for a while there, but so worth the effort; made lots of new friends and met extremely supportive mentors/peers while on this journey
