Maybe easier in your mind, but, for the great majority of people who have entered into the realm of keeping dwarf seahorses, not easy enough.
The greatest majority who have kept dwarfs ended up quitting because of the continual hatching and enriching process which can get to you after a while.
I only managed two years before I packed it in, and this, while already raising reidi and erectus fry for years, and, growing out artemia to adult for my own purposes and also to sell through a couple of LFSs here.
Generally speaking though, for the dwarfs, I would usually hatch out enough for about ten days so that I only had to do enrichment for that time interval.
Of course, if I had new fry on the go, I would have to do it every day for a few days as their fry are smaller than dwarf fry, especially reidi, but once they get to about 5-7 days old they can also take 10 day old nauplii.
