Search for new cube add

[twisted]

I've been thinking a while on what to put in the cube that runs off my 180's sump. In it is halimeda, xenia,Kenya, and a few dendro flavors. And my maroon clown. It's loaded with pods as is my fuge and my wife asked if she could have a pair of seahorses. Any opinions? My tank runs 78 to 80
The other add will be a blue spot jaw

Matt, would be the best person to reply. But I think they could be a bit to warm for seahorses.
Dwarf seahorses can tolerate a warmer temp but are very small and easily get sucked up into pumps. Been there already.

Temps are my main concern. If its something that they just tolerate I'd rather tell my wife no. If they could thrive and be happy with temps.... Wifey b happy

Those temps are way too high. For seahorses you want 72-74 degrees. At 78-80 temps the seahorses are very susceptible to bacterial infections. They normally don't last more than a few months at reef temps.
