I know you think your tang is fine for your tank now, he really needs a much larger tank. C Tangs get around 11 inches in captivity and will grow quickly. (Beautiful fish though) They can be tricky to keep even for the most experienced aquarist really he needs a bigger tank. But also, yes he can and will live happily with your seahorses since their diets are different and they will not steel the SH's food. However the clowns will. I would not suggest a clown for this tank with the sea horse. Your clown will eat his food and not give your horse a chance to eat..
 
i had originally 4 sea horses now down to one thanks to crabs i have a chevron tang in with the sea horse in a 14 gallon bio cube they have been living happily together for a month can i add a true percular clown

what you need to learn is you dont stock the tank based on the size of the fish now, because it will be stunted and never grow.

You need to base it on what potiental size they get to, so the tang has to go. All tangs need around at least 75 gallons.

Seahorses are not easy to keep which is why they probably died. a 14 gallon biocube is not alot of room .


You have to get rid of the tang, it isnt fair to the fish. You can keep the clownfish in the 14 with the sea horse until the horse dies. The tang must go.
 
14 gallon is WAYYY too small for any tang, much less a chevron...

ditch the tang, but the clown would be fine if you spot feed the seahorse
