Sea-Monkeys with an air-pump and undergravel filter in its tank, is it dangerous for the sea-monkeys?

I am getting sea monkeys again and im not using the tanks they sell, like on the website, and I’m putting the sea monkey’s in a fish tank just because there is going to be more than just one pack of the “instant eggs”. The tank i am getting comes with an undergravel filter, and an air pump, and i was wondering if anyone knew if i put those items in if it would kill the sea monkeys. I know that a special pump is sold for the sea-monkeys (on the website) to blow air into the tank but its a serperate thing, i dont even know how to explain what it is. And this air pump (w/ air tubing & air stone) acts as the same thing but its an actual fish pump. And the filter is to keep the tank clean, but gravel will be on top of that. These will be in and on in the tank all the time pretty much. If anyone can help, i would really appreciate it. thx

Can I keep dwarf seahorses?

I want to get 2 in a 2 gallon tank(yes a 2 gallon because when I was doing reasearch it said that in larger tanks it is hard for them to find their food)and yes I know how much work it takes to keep seahorses and in a small tank I have to keep up with ammonia, nitrate, and nitite levels(including that I can’t use live rock to cycle my aquarium) and I also know they are very fussy eaters including the ones that are wild caught and please I would appreciate it if you wouldn’t be mean to me I already had a stressful day. Also they will have this in the tank:
Decor
1 Littlest Pet Shop Aquarium Figures
1 Top FinĀ® Pink Plastic Plant Variety Pack
food
1 8oz. bag with live adult brine shrimp(which i will keep in a 1-1.5 gallon tank)also the seahorses will have a turbo snail as a tankmate to keep the 2 gallon
here is the 2 gallon tank they will be in: http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2752291

Can I own a male and female red claw crab in the same tank?

Okay so i have a 2.5 gallon tank. I know male red claw crabs are very territorial, but will a male and female get along? Also, the fish store said that the reason the crabs don’t fight in the tanks that are in the store is because there is soooo many that it actually offsets them being territorial. So can I get like 4 or 5 in the 2.5 gallon tank or will it be a blood bath? I want more than one, so hopefully i can get a male and female, but if a male is too territorial, can i get more to offset it?

Also, if i can squeeze another question in- am i able to raise brine shrimp in the tank so that they have a constant supply of food or will that not work out? Thanks.
