Lions,eels & seahorses

[Colton.]

Is there a species of lion/eel that I can keep with tigertail seahorses?
Can I keep fu macho or violin lions with The SHs?
Can I keep snowflake eels with tigertail seahorses?
Can I keep then all in a 150 gallon tank with a divider in between the SHs & eels/lions?
Does the divider need to be water proof or not?
1 sump or 2?

Do not keep any eel or lionfish with seahorses for a variety of reasons

Ok can I put a divider in between the seahorses and the Lions/eels? So I can keep them all in 1 tank?

If there is no possible way for the eel to knock it down or go around it but it would make me nervous.

Seahorse are something that needs a designated tank. Lower temperature, feedings 3 times a day. Cleaning up after every feeding. They are an expert level thing to keep.

Hi Colton, I have answered a few of your questions and read more. Ocean Rider and Alyssa's Seahorse Savvy have good information on keeping seahorses. Not to be rude, but if you want a saltwater tank, you would be better off to start with fish. Seahorses take a lot of care to keep healthy and you have to know what you are doing. They are delicate animals that deserve the best of care and can get quite expensive. A few fish, maybe some coral will help you to get the experience to try seahorses later. You should read all of the great information that is out there and really learn the basics of care for a reef tank before jumping into seahorses.

Ok so can I get a 75 gallon tank with is 48x18x21 and get some seahorse safe fish and coral then lateron get the seahorses?

That would be a good plan. There are very few fish and corals that can be safe with the seahorses. If you look on Seahorse Savvy, they have the coral and fish recommendations.
