what specific questions do you have

I have a 29g fuge w/ several macro algaes and 2 nice gorgs that I will use, it is plumbed off my sump's fuge and has slow water movement. I am contemplating 2 horses and some pipefish - my concern is that I have read that they create alot of waste and I don't want to upset the original purpose of my 'extra' fuge too much. Is this worry valid or not?

Did you read either of the links providing care of seahorses?

I read 'em both and looked at reefcentral - are they as messy as reputed?
