Default How to feed hicocampus zostera

Hey guys, Im setting up a dwarf seahorse tank right now. Very big challange i know... Its going to be a 20 gal and im wondering how to feed them?

i was thinking a few of these:
Continuous Hatch 'N Feeder

or one of these in the 1000 model:

Artemia Cultivation Units

also there would be allot of caulupria and a blocked of part of the tank for pods to grow....

filtration:
Foam Aquarium Biological Filters: Oxygen Plus Bio-Filter 9

lighting:
Compact Fluorescent Aquarium Lighting: Single Satellite Compact Fluorescent Fixtures

everthing seems good?

Sounds great! The continuos hatch n feeder will require removal once a week or more for cleaning. Also the artemia will only come out when the light is on as they are drawn to the exit by light. I use an inverted Coke bottle as a hatcher.

Foam filtration is great and you might even consider an undergravel filter as well. Macroalgae in the main tank for the food to hide and grow would also help to keep down the nitrates and phosphates.
