We changed our pump in the 24 gallon JBJ Maxi jet 600 powerhead. But this tank doesn't have any horses and I would lean towards 5 - 7 x turnover for a seahorse tank.

The labels we use on the horses are waaaay loose. Every one is marching to a different drummer it seems. The ones at the
LFS which have been labelled as tank-raised, tank-bred and pen raised all have the same meaning. Doesn't make sense, but it's the way it is. The best way to figure out a captive bred is to see if they have them named correctly, see if they are on the smallish side (larger horses won't usually be CB) and make sure the
LFS knows where they got them from.
