I use a marineland eclipse 29 gallon tank.  The kit came with everything you need to keep seahorses.  The specific gravity of the tank needs to be about 1.022 and the temperature will vary depending on the type of seahorse.  You will need some live rock to start up and cycle your tank (it will take a few months).  You can purchase captive bred seahorses at marine aquarium stores or on line that have been trained to eat frozen mysis shrimp.Try www.seahorse.org

I couldn't possibly tell you about your fish.  However, I CAN tell you that your question is in the wrong section.  Try posting it in PETS>Fish...you might get a better response.  This section is for HUMAN illnesses and conditions!

Too big for it to ever have been built.\nToo many animals to ever carry enough food.\nToo many animals for the smaller ones not to have drowned/suffocated in all the waste they animals would have produced.

youl need a tank, a strip light that emits vitamin d and a 60 watt bulb. some reptile shops may sell u a second hand vivarium.

Without sophisticated devices, this is tough to measure.\n\nUsing a metabolic calculator you can quantify input and output over time for the fish. If you have the devices to measure output from the water and monitor to to collect it all.\n\nYou can also do blood draws to meature serum levels of metabollic indicators.\n\nFor a more simple 'rule of thumb' approach, you could make a graph of food consumption per gram of fish at certain calculated temperatures. You would find that at the low and higher ends they consume more. At the lowest and highest ends trhey consume less and in the middle they consume the average of them all. It would be a bumpy bell curve. But that is not directly measuring metabollic rate.

The reef's massive structure is formed from coral polyps, tiny animals that live in colonies; when coral polyps die, they leave behind a hard, stony, branching structure made of limestone.\n\nhttp://www.enchantedlearning.com/biomes/coralreef/coralreef.shtml\n\nThe best coral reef websites on the internet. \n\nhttp://www.geocities.com/RainForest/2298/links.htm\n\nOCEANS & MARINE LIFE WEB SITES\n\nhttp://www.cumbavac.org/Oceans_and_Marine_Life.htm\n\nGood luck.\n\nKevin, Liverpool, England.

Whether your tanks are safe or not depends on the area over which they are imposing a load.  Domestic floors are often constructed to take about 150 kilos per square meter, or about 400 pounds per square yard.  The water in your tanks weighs about 370 kilos, a bit over 800 pounds, so if their area is over two square yards you should be OK.  If they're standing on tables, though, you might want to put some boards under the table legs to spread the load a bit.

Here are a couple of great sites on pond ecosystems, including a powerpoint presentation.\n\nI hope this helps.

The water first needs to be dechlorinared if using tap-water, use products sold at pet shops.  An aquarium needs to be cycling efficiently before it can support fish properly; bacteria that converts harmful nitrogenous waste (ammonia) into less harmfull stuff (nitrate) need to build up in the water, plants and substrate.  This bacteria may already be in the tank, but you can ensure it is by getting a plant, filter medium or substrate from a well established aquarium or buying commercialy products from your pet store.\nFirst you need to buy a few hardy fish, the number depending on the size of your tank. Platys and zebra danios are able to withstand a cycling tank and are ideal.\nThe fish will produce ammonia, this ammonia will build up and is very toxic, as levels of ammonia increase bacteria capable of converting ammonia into nitrite will build up. Nitrite is less deadly but levels of nitrite will increase until bacteria populations capable of converting nitrite into nitrate which is far less toxic ( you will still nedd to carry out weekly 10% water changes, using dechlorinated water, to ensure levels of nitrate don't get too high). After a number of weeks the tank will be able to cycle the waste of your fish from ammonia to nitrate, increase numbers of fish slowly, only 2-3 at a time.\nbuy test kits from your pet shop so you can monitor the various levels. \nBe patient, test your water, add few fish at a time and you'll soon have a healthy aquarium.

ummm everybody seems to have the same answer but yeah\nim assuming your in gr......7 science?\njust cause thats what i am referring to right now in my head:\n\na producer: like a plant/ something that makes its own food[bottom of food chain]\n\nconsumer: an animal/ something that need food by eating something else.\nthere are a bunch of types of producers but i dont remember the names cuz it was too long ago i think it was...so i will number them\n1: 2nd lowest it only eats plants\n2: eats plants and things that eat plants [3rd lowest]\n3: things that eat plants and animals that eat plant/ plants and animals.[highest/us!]\n\nif 1 animal were to lose its habitat, the plant eater would have no food and it would die and then the 2 woulod be able to eat nothing and the 3 would be able to eat nothing cuz the animals and the plants died. its an ecosystem...ect.....symbiosism....ect..\n\nand included in that test should be some stuff about decomposition or something like that\n..\n..\nand some stuff about \nmutualism; when 2 things are benifiting \nex: the sharks and the suckers\n\n__________.[i forgot]; when i thing benifits but the other is not harmed\nex: i cant think of one right now...but it exsists!\n\nparasitism; when i thing benifits and the other is harmed\nex: a tapeworm in a human\n\nendnote: ppl will see this answer and answer it better based on my answer so *cough*i think i should get best answer*endcough* and i totaly am just typing this out of my brain what i learnt 2 years ago so i dont remember much ^_^"""

There is a great deal of information and MISinformation\navailable about seahorses.  You need to make sure you \ncan provide them a safe home with high water quality\nand the best seahorse tanks have only seahorses and some\ncleanup crew as far as tankmates go.  Make sure you do \nresearch on them before deciding to set up a seahorse \ntank.  That being said, they are facinating and adorable\ncreatures.  I love them.  Some excellent sources of\ninformation are books written by folks who have raised\nand/or studied them. \ncheck with The Aquatic Book Shop (www.Seahorses.com) for\nbooks on seahorses.\nAn EXCELLENT website to check is\nwww.syngnathid.org; there is a wealth of information on\nthe site for seahorse care, from beginning to advanced\nand the folks on the site are very helpful in answering\nany questions you might have.\nAlso check www.seahorse.org for info. on these wonderful\ncreatures.

I did.  Had a few of them (all small), in a 75 gallon tank.  They did great, but one was territorial -- might have been a male??  I kept one for a long time, and he didn't have any problems -- he got to the point where he'd eat worms out of my hand and knew when it was time to eat.  Pretty cool.\n\nThey are very adaptable to different water temps (consider they live in 40 degree water up north, to 80 degree water down south), and don't require a lot of maintenance, except for food, which gets expensive -- they only eat live food and they eat a LOT.
