    Default 10 Gallon Stocking

    I gave my cousin one of the (now) many aquariums I have. It's a little ten gallon.... Not a cube or anything, just a little cheap ol' tank that you can get anywhere. I am wanting to give him some good ideas for stocking... It will probably be only zoa tank with few fish. He may want to add a pair of dwarf seahorses. Any fish listed should be docile, as the SH will not eat as quickly as an aggressor will. There will be crabs, and snails.
    Please post some exotic examples, and if you can links to pictures. TYIA for everyone's help!!!

    10 Gallons is a little large for dwarf seahorses. The link above will help you out.
    BTW here is a list of things you can't have with dwarf SH:
    Live rock
    HOB filters
    power heads
    any tank mates
    other fish
    crabs
    snails
    strong light
    etc...
    They require a very specific species tank. I just wanted to warn you and they only eat live baby brine.

    I suggest some of the smaller gobies. Circus is cool. Clown goby's are good if they come in eating. A shrimp goby is always neat.

    Him: \"What?\"
    Me: \"I said that your ammonia levels have peaked causing massive biological decline.\"
    Him: \"You mean stuff died?\"
    Me: \"Precisely.\"
