I'm working on a saltwater tank for my son.i know for sure a clown fish will be in there. can a hippo tang and seahorse be put in there too? I'm a noob when it comes to saltwater

No to the hippo tang, your tank will be too small. Seahorses clowns blennys maybe a dwarf eel or a wrasse. Those are all options. Dwarf eels are really cool in my opinion.

Well I want to keep it nemo themed that's why I wanted the hippo.

You could go for a pair of clowns. Plus some other dwarfs as mentioned above. I also agree no to the hippo tang. I'm pretty sure they can get to almost a foot in length
 
If you wanted a nemo theme tank id say you'd need a 75 gallon tank minimum. Maybe you can get some nemo decor?

Well I do have an empty 75. It wasn't in plans to use that tank though. Mel I have all the nemo decor but going that route is kind of lame. I tried it before and didn't like it. I rather see actual fish. Ok so what about a sea horse and clown then

Clowns and seahorses are also kind of iffy. Clowns are related to damsels and can be extremely territorial. With such a small tank the seahorse might get bullied or might not get enough food. If youre set on it i would definitely try the false perculas because they tend to be less agressive.

I definitely wouldn't put a seahorse in. IMO they should be left in a tank with seahorses only and they do require pristine water conditions which some find hard to keep up on. If you want a nemo themed tank I would go bigger. 75 gallons at the least.
