I can't even read the responses so I am just going to post. A LIONFISH in a nanocube and you are asking about a seahorse...I am hoping this is a joke and I didn't get it. A lionfish needs a lot of food, hence major waste. With a tank of that size you can not provide enough mechanical or biological filtration for that fish, not to mention putting that fish in a 12g tank! Then you ask about a seahorse...dude you need to read. Stop watching finding nemo and pick up a book... A seahorse is very hard to keep in any tank with other fish because they are such slow feeders that usually their food is consumed before they make it to it. Plus a lionfish would probably mutilate the seahorse. Sorry to sound so harsh but this is crazy!
