Hi DCFishE,
Welcome! Your tank as well as your plan sounds just fine and would make a lovely home for 2 to 3 pairs of erectus. I would start with 2 pairs. I believe there is a special which includes 1 pair of Sunbursts and 1 pair of Mustangs.
OR has been breeding seahorses particularly erectus longer than any of the other companies currently offering CB seahorses. In addition they are certified by the State of Hawaii as a high health facility, which means they have to adhere to very strict guidelines in order to meet the criteria and maintain the certification. Please do have a look at the About Us link, if you have not previously. You will find more information there.
The distance the horses have to travel should not really be an issue unless you live close enough to pick them up. OR and most others ship overnight unless you live in a remote area which does not have overnight delivery and then your seahorses would be in transit 2 days. This will be the case with who ever you order from.
HTH,
Leslie
